Turing Test
Posted by ljmacphee on March 15, 2007 under topics in artificial intelligence | 
Somehow I bet when Turning designed his test for artificial intelligence he never thought there’d also be a simple computer test to see if you are a human.
Turing’s test involves putting a human and a computer behind a screen. A judge then communicates by email, text or some other method that does not give away whether he is speaking to a machine or human, with the machine and the human.
He asks what ever questions he likes of both. If he can not tell which is the machine and which is the human, then the computer passes the Turing test.
The Loebner Prize exists today to find the best imitator of human conversation. It is the first formal prize for passing a Turning-like test.
Now to tell humans from spam and other bots on the internet we test to see if you are human by having you type some warped text into a box. To prove you can do what the computer can not.

In Turing Test Two, two players A and B are again being questioned by a human interrogator C. Before A gave out his answer (labeled as aa) to a question, he would also be required to guess how the other player B will answer the same question and this guess is labeled as ab. Similarly B will give her answer (labeled as bb) and her guess of A’s answer, ba. The answers aa and ba will be grouped together as group a and similarly bb and ab will be grouped together as group b. The interrogator will be given first the answers as two separate groups and with only the group label (a and b) and without the individual labels (aa, ab, ba and bb). If C cannot tell correctly which of the aa and ba is from player A and which is from player B, B will get a score of one. If C cannot tell which of the bb and ab is from player B and which is from player A, A will get a score of one. All answers (with the individual labels) are then made available to all parties (A, B and C) and then the game continues. At the end of the game, the player who scored more is considered had won the game and is more “intelligent”.

Thank you. I just came back from a trip and had a chance to read your paper.
I like the idea of your Turing Test Two very much. I don’t think the Budda bot
could pass that one.
* 1/2/08 I just downloaded this paper Turing test and derivatives from Arxiv.org. You may find it interesting as well.
