Voice Bots: Most Human Computers We've Ever Had. – Archie.AI – Medium

The most reliable way to determine if an entity can be deemed artificially intelligent is through Turing Test. It involves computers being able to consistently "fool" human testers into believing that they are talking to a human through a conversational messaging interface. The idea is that the use of language is the most advanced use of human intelligence and if computers can do that as good as a human, they should be considered intelligent. Alan Turing proposed the chat setup to take out the visual aspect so machines don't have to look like humans to be considered intelligent. There's a reason we place so much importance on language. Language happens to be the most nuanced way we can produce and transfer information.
