Named after English mathematician, logician, and cryptographer Alan Turing (1912–1954). Turing himself used the term imitation game.
noun Turing tests
- A test of a computer's ability to demonstrate intelligence, as measured by whether a human judge can reliably distinguish the computer from another human being by conversing with both entities in written natural language over a terminal. The Turing test used to be the gold standard for proving machine intelligence. This generation of bots is racing past it. We need to stay calm — and develop a new test.
