Supercomputer poses as 13-year-old boy, becomes first ever to pass Turing Test. June 9, 2014— -- Like many 13-year-old boys, Eugene Goostman claims to be a know-it-all. The one thing that ...

Parallel computing has become a bedrock in the HPC field, where applications are becoming increasingly complex and such compute-intensive technologies as data analytics, deep learning and artificial ...

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 ...

Pairs were set up and judges were tasked with identifying whether who they were talking to was human or a computer. Can machines be successful in 'being human' in real conversations? Alan Turing led a ...

Two researchers in the Netherlands helmed the construction of a LEGO Turing machine, a quirky manifestation of the classic computer science concept first devised by Alan Turing in 1936. The device, ...

It is the height of the Second World War. A group of codebreakers stands in a dimly lit warehouse 50 miles northwest of London, a giant machine composed of spinning drums and wires looms in front of ...

This year marks 70 years since Alan Turing published his paper introducing the concept of the Turing Test in response to the question, “Can machines think?” The test’s goal was to determine if a ...

A theoretical computer built in a mixed-up mathematical universe might not sound like the most practical invention. But the discovery shows that computation can turn up in the most unlikely places, ...

Charles Darwin and Alan Turing, in their different ways, both homed in on the same idea: the existence of competence without comprehension. Some of the greatest, most revolutionary advances in science ...
