Why It’s Time to Sunset the Turing Test
In 1950, Alan Mathison Turing published a paper outlining ways to assess emerging machine intelligences, centered on the notion that if an AI can convincingly imitate a human intellect, it can be regarded as intelligent.
The Turing Test has served as a yardstick to measure the intelligence of various systems, from early medical expert systems to today’s large language models (LLMs).
A recent meeting in London, observing the 75-year anniversary of Turing’s paper, concluded that the Turing Test has had its day and is now an unhelpful distraction.
