One of the things we love best about the articles we publish on Hackaday is the dynamic that can develop between the hacker and the readers. At its best, the comment section of an article can be a ...

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 ...

One of the problems with a classic Turing machine is the tape must be infinitely long. [Mark’s] Turing Ring still doesn’t have an infinite tape, but it does make it circular to save space. That along ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: The Busy Beaver number, or BB(n), represents a mathematical problem that tries to calculate the longest possible run-time of a Turing machine ...

ChatGPT can now easily pass any Turing test, a measure of successful A.I. proposed by a founder of computer science, Alan Turing. But contemporary Turing tests leave out the most interesting part of ...

As increasingly sophisticated models like ChatGPT test the boundaries of machine intelligence – the potential consequences for society are profound. As artificial intelligence, AI, continues its rapid ...

Author's rendition of a basic Turing test set-up. Sitting in between two agents (one human and one machine), a person needs to interact with both agents and determine (correctly) which is a machine.
