Turing Test

 

Basic Setup

    Imitation Game

       Person A, Person B, Interrogator

       Interrogator has to distinguish who is who (man or women | machine or person)

       Questioning only by language, no visual or touch, mediated by a teletype

 

 

Ways to determine what is intelligent?

    Survey people

       poorly defined

       different ideas about machines, thinking, intelligence

       ordinary language philosophy

 

Why is this a good test (According to Turing)?

    Needs a objective definition

    The test will tell us whether a machine is intelligent

 

 

But???

    People still haver differnet ideas intelligence

    No definition, just being humanlike

    Why is being humanlike the same as intelligence?

    This is the intelligence of the programmer not the machine

    It is just mimicking a certain feature of human activity

    Is intelligence the same as access to information?

 

    other uses of language (humor, sarcasm, irony)

    At least the test only language use (other forms of intelligence like musical, body, spatial, etc.)

 

 

What about the interrogator?

    Just a fancy survey?

 

 

Theory of Mind

    We solve problem of other minds (solipsism)

    apply it to all sorts of people, even animals, why not machines??

    Daniel Dennett's "intentional stance"

    based on outward behavior

    interpret as rational  -- make sense, having a logic, achieving a goal

   

 

Is mimicking, simulating the same thing as the real thing?

 

Objections:

    Intuition

    Growth

    Creativity (Lady Lovelace Objection)

      COUNTER

        Not all that original (has a structure, history) (mash-ups)

          It could be a mechanical process (gold + mountain = gold mountain)

         Darwin's objection
