For something that has been around since the 1930s and is so foundational to computer science, you’d think that the Turing machine, an abstraction for mechanical computation, would be easily ...

Turing machines are widely believed to be universal, in the sense that any computation done by any system can also be done by a Turing machine. In a new article, researchers present their work ...

Somewhere at the edge of mathematics lurks a number so large that it breaks the very foundations of our understanding - and ...

In this video, we explore various aspects of artificial intelligence and consciousness, discussing: - AI in science fiction ...

What is the "Turing Test?" The Turing Test is a concept introduced by British mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing in his seminal 1950 paper, "Computing Machinery and Intelligence." The ...

Unlike the traditional Turing Test, which assesses a machine's ability to mimic human cognitive functions, the Inverse Turing Test evaluates the "human comprehensibility" of AI outputs. It's a ...

In a paper published Nov. 10 in Intelligent Computing, Philip Nicholas Johnson-Laird of Princeton University and Marco Ragni of Chemnitz University of Technology propose a novel alternative to the ...
