This month is the 75 th anniversary of the Turing Test, which Alan Turing introduced to the world in his paper, “Computing Machinery and Intelligence”, published in the October 1950 issue of the ...

OpenAI's GPT-4 has become the first AI to pass the Turing Test. At least, that's what a group of researchers claim in a new study. The study, which is currently available on the preprint server arXiv, ...

Can you tell if you're chatting with a human or a chatbot? According to a new study, most people can't. In fact, one of today's top artificial intelligence models, OpenAI's GPT-4.5, was judged to be ...

Alan Turing proposed a test for machine intelligence that no longer works. The idea was to have people communicate over a terminal, with another real person and with a computer. If the computer is ...

In a recent preprint study, researchers put GPT-4.5 to the test—not to solve complex problems or write code, but to do something far more human: hold a conversation. The results were impressive. When ...

The Turing Test, a concept introduced by Alan Turing in 1950, has been a foundation concept for evaluating a machine's ability to exhibit human-like intelligence. But as we edge closer to the ...
