Super computer passes the Turing Test

Some tests were performed today at the Royal Society in London with a computer to persuade people for the first time that it was also a living person. This means the first independent program to pass the famous Turing Test.

Five computers were tested to see if they could convince a user in a general conversation that they were human, and the program called "Eugene Goostman" was successful. Launched by one of the first computer developers, Alan Turing, the experiment was designed to highlight computers that are capable of operating with the level of intelligence seen only in humans.

Turing said that if a person thinks that he or she is communicating with others while actually talking to a computer, the computer needs to be thought and capable of performing as human beings. In other words, the behavior of computers must show that it is indistinguishable from a person who accomplishes the same task.

From the concept in 1950, the rules of the experiment are still the same. Computers simply have to convince users it is living by participating in a text-based conversation. If 30% of judges agree that they feel they are talking to a person, that computer is approved.

Today, the Eugene Goostman program achieved 33% approval and that has been put into history as the package for the first time passes the Turing test. Previously, only the program in the game passed the test rather than the standalone program.

According to the Telegraph report, the program was written by Russia Vladimir Veselov, currently living in the US, and Ukraine Eugene Demchenko currently lives in Russia. The program aims to be a 13-year-old student and you can really talk to "Eugene" online at his website."It is a remarkable achievement for us and we hope it increases the attractiveness in artificial intelligence and chatbot."

Many people are skeptical about the possible consequences of smart-level machines on the grounds that shown through movies like the Terminator series are the result of our controlling machines; Experts are debating whether this is really possible.

Today's event will probably dramatically change the world of computer artificial intelligence.
