oct 1, 1950 - Turing Test, a milestone in AI history

Description:

Alan Turing, a British mathematician and computer scientist, proposes the Turing Test (also known as the Imitation Game) in his seminal paper, "Computing Machinery and Intelligence." The test is designed to evaluate a machine's ability to exhibit human-like intelligence. If an interrogator, communicating with a machine and a human via text, cannot reliably distinguish between the machine and human responses, the machine is considered to have passed the test. The Turing Test becomes a foundational concept in AI, setting a benchmark for the development of artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction.
