The Turing Test was developed by Alan Turing, a London scientist viewed by many as one of the founders of artificial intelligence. “The Turing Test is supposed to be a test of whether a computer is genuinely intelligent in the same way a human being is,” Hirst told the Star. Yet Professor Graeme Hirst, a researcher and lecturer in computer science at the University of Toronto, disagrees. The university published a press release on June 8 saying that the 65-year-old Turing Test was passed by a computer program named Eugene Goostman during the ‘Turing Test 2014’ contest held in London last weekend. The University of Reading in Britain announced last weekend that the Turing Test, the long-touted standard for artificial intelligence, was passed for the “very first time” - but not everyone agrees.
