The Turing Test

How does the Turing Test work?

Test a machines intelliengce - to see if a machine can communicate like a human by fooling another one

A human (machine A) sits at a computer terminal and asks any questions to two other computer terminals which are in seperate rooms.
One of these terminals is controlled by another human.
The other terminal is a computer being tested for intelligence.

If the human on machine A cannot distinguish between the two the test is passed.

Flaws with the test?

only tests one aspect of intelligence
