What (who) is Turing test - definition
Turing test
¦ noun a series of questions used as a test for intelligence in a computer.
Turing test
<artificial intelligence> A criterion proposed by {Alan
Turing} in 1950 for deciding whether a computer is
intelligent. Turing called it "the Imitation Game" and
offered it as a replacement for the question, "Can machines
think?"
A human holds a written conversation on any topic with an
unseen correspondent (nowadays it might be by {electronic
mail} or chat). If the human believes he is talking to
another human when he is really talking to a computer then the
computer has passed the Turing test and is deemed to be
intelligent.
Turing predicted that within 50 years (by the year 2000)
technological progress would produce computing machines with a
capacity of 10**9 bits, and that with such machinery, a
computer program would be able to fool the average questioner
for 5 minutes about 70% of the time.
The Loebner Prize is a competition to find a computer
program which can pass an unrestricted Turing test.
Julia (http://fuzine.mt.cs.cmu.edu/mlm/julia.html) is a
program that attempts to pass the Turing test.

Turing test
The Turing test, originally called the imitation game by Alan Turing in 1950, is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behaviour equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. Turing proposed that a human evaluator would judge natural language conversations between a human and a machine designed to generate human-like responses.

Examples of use of Turing test
1. This is the so–called Turing test, devised in the 1'50s by the computer scientist Alan Turing.
2. They will pass the Turing Test in the 2020s, in which humans will not be able to tell whether they are conversing with a person or a computer.
3. The final criterion for any such reproduction is the rather imprecise "Turing test" of artificial intelligence÷ that is, whether it can make the listener think he or she is hearing a person rather than a machine. 1 2 3Next>> Next Article in Arts (1 of 18) >
4. "A lot of cutting edge AI has filtered into general applications, often without being called AI because once something becomes useful enough and common enough it‘s not labelled AI anymore." Although AI has enjoyed its headline–grabbing moments, such as when IBM‘s Deep Blue computer beat chess world champion Garry Kasparov in 1''7, no machine has yet come close to passing the "Turing Test" –– the conversational test devised by mathematician Alan Turing in 1'50 to determine whether a machine could "think." But Bostrom said that traditional "top–down" approaches to AI, in which programmers coded machined to cope with specific situations, were being supplemented by "bottom–up" systems inspired by enhanced understanding of the neural networks of the brain, leading to more subtle forms of AI.
