ChatGPT passes the famous 'Turing test' - suggesting the AI bot has intelligence equivalent to a human, scientists claim

Since it was first proposed in 1950, passing the'Turing test' has been seen as one of the highest goals in AI. But now, researchers claim that ChatGPT has become the first AI to pass this famous test for human intelligence. Proposed by computer pioneer Alan Turing, it claims that an AI should be considered truly intelligent if people can't tell if they are speaking to a human or machine. In a pre-print paper, cognitive scientists from UC San Diego argue that the ChatGPT-4 can fool human test subjects more than half of the time. However, the researchers say this might say more about the Turing test than it does about the intelligence of modern AI.
