Five artificial interlocutors provalili Turing test

All five programs - artificial interviewees who participated in the competition, University of Reading failed the Turing test, transmit BBC News. To win required that the judges adopted the program per person in at least 30 per cent of cases. Conversation and car lasted only five minutes.

Past tests were part of the eighteenth Prize Lebnera (Loebner Prize), shall be awarded each year sponsors the best man interviewed. The first result of this inspection, 25 per cent, showed a program Elbot, writes The Guardian. The program deceived 3 of the 12 judges, said Associated Press. Creator Elbot, Fred Roberts, despite the defeat, will receive a prize of three thousand dollars.

Initially, the competition should have been part of six programs, but artificial interlocutress Alice did not have been able to adjust in time, and she left.

Turing Test proposed in the fifties years of British mathematician Alan Turing and cryptography as the answer to the question "Can a machine think?". Turing believed that an accurate answer can not be, but if people in the service deems interlocutor machine as man, we can consider this the "thinking".

So far, no program has been unable to pass the Turing test. Sam mathematician believed that by 2000 the program will be able to pass a test in 30 per cent of cases.
