The supercomputer that passed the Turing test turned out to be a bluff
A few days ago on Habré there was a topic in which it was reported that a Russian computer program for the first time in history was able to pass the Turing test:
A program developed by Vladimir Veselov from Russia and Ukrainian Yevgeny Demchenko yesterday managed to convince 33% of the judges that she really is a 13-year-old from Odessa Yevgeny Gustman, a lover of sweets and hamburgers and the son of a gynecologist.
To understand that this is a bluff, having no basis for it, was simple enough. As TechDirt noted : Eugene Goostman is not a supercomputer, but just a chat bot.And in general, the methodology of this test was incorrect and does not hold water.
The chat bot posed as a thirteen-year-old Ukrainian boy named Eugene Goostman, whose English is not his mother tongue. It is quite obvious that the strangeness in his answers and the inability to adequately answer the questions of the judge could be taken for not having a good command of English.
And besides, the test organizer was Kevin Warwick, a person known for his sensational statements for unsuspecting journalists. ')
Independently chat with the chat bot Eugene Goostman and see for its primitiveness here (the site is often unavailable.)
