Turing Test

[ˈtʊrɪŋ tɛst]
Artificial Intelligence
Last updated: December 9, 2024

Definition

A test to evaluate a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behavior indistinguishable from a human.

Detailed Explanation

The Turing Test, proposed by Alan Turing, assesses a machine's ability to exhibit behavior indistinguishable from a human. In this test, a human evaluator engages in natural language conversations with both a human and a machine without knowing which is which. If the evaluator cannot reliably distinguish between the human and machine responses, the machine is said to pass the test. This benchmark has been influential in AI development despite criticisms about its adequacy as a measure of true intelligence.

Use Cases

Benchmarking AI conversational abilities advancing natural language processing.
