![]() How we judge “intelligence” has been a philosophical quandary for centuries. The Turing Test is a fascinating philosophical concept. ![]() I must admit the conversation is pretty funny, as Eugene can't speak English too particularly well, but does in fact show signs of understanding sarcasm and memory. In the meantime, Time magazine did release an article that showcases an interview with Eugene. The rockstar developers include Vladimir Veselov, who was born in Russia and now lives in the United States and Ukrainian born Eugene Demchenko who now lives in Russia. The program, known as Eugene Goostman, which simulates a 13 year old boy, is the first artificial intelligence to pass the test originally developed by the 20th century mathematician ( Alan Turing).Įugene, first developed in Saint Petersburg, Russia, was one of five supercomputers battling to beat the famed test. That means the program passes Turning’s AI litmus test of fooling humans at least 30 percent of the time on average. The program convinced 33 percent of a panel of judges at the University of Reading that it was a 13-year-old Ukrainian boy. This weekend, a computer program has officially passed the historic Turing Test, a 65 year old experiment that seeks to find the point at which a computer can pass as a human being in text-based conversation. A computer that can interact with you in the same manner as you would with your friends or family members, through just your voice, text, or gestures. With artificial intelligence rapidly growing in speed, capability, and application, we all wonder when we'll see the rise of the smart computer. We've all been awestruck by movies like Her or "Jarvis" from Iron Man that has helped us expand our beliefs on what's possible in today's computing age.
