What’s a good example? His “modern Turing Test” would give an AI $100,000, and then the researchers would wait for the AI to make $1 million on its initial investment.

The term Turing Test was coined by Alan Turing, a British mathematician and computer scientist who wanted to use certain methods to test whether machines can think and act like humans.

A new robotic twist on the “Turing test” fools human subjects This time it's more about body language.
