ABOUT THIS BOOK: The Turing Test is part of the vocabulary of popular cultureit has appeared in works ranging from the Broadway play "Breaking the Code" to the comic strip "Robotman." The writings collected by Stuart Shieber for this book examine the profound philosophical issues surrounding the Turing Test as a criterion for intelligence. Alan Turing's idea, originally expressed in a 1950 paper titled "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" and published in the journal Mind, proposed an "indistinguishability test" that compared artifact and person. Following Descartes's dictum that it is the ability to speak that distinguishes human from beast, Turing proposed to test whether machine and person were indistinguishable in regard to verbal ability. He was not, as is often assumed, answering the question "Can machines think?" but proposing a more concrete way to ask it. Turing's proposed thought experiment encapsulates the issues that the writings in The Turing Test define and discuss. The first section of the book contains writings by philosophical precursors, including Descartes, who first proposed the idea of indistinguishablity tests. The second section contains all of Turing's writings on the Turing Test, including not only the Mind paper but also less familiar ephemeral material. The final section opens with responses to Turing's paper published in Mind soon after it first appeared. The bulk of this section, however, consists of papers from a broad spectrum of scholars in the field that directly address the issue of the Turing Test as a test for intelligence.(Publisher).

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. SUBTITLED : ` Verbal Behavior as the Hallmark of Intelligence '. I'm calling this 146 pages thinking about thinking. I think it has an INDEX. It doesn't have illustrations. Alan Turing first published his idea of an intelligence test for machines in 1950 in a journal called : `Mind'. That is reproduced here along with some commentary that followed the publication. Perhaps more importantly, some early ideas in the field, such as those of Rene Descartes are also given. Cond : Paper wrapper is lime green with purple lettering. Front cover graphic shows a sideshow trick involving a conjurer. Front cover has a sharp crease. Verso front cover has a blacked-out name. Volume is else tight and bright and crisp. Excellent reference shelf item. Quote (p. 106) : " Let us go rather more carefully into the nature of this `proof'. It is clearly possible to produce a machine which would give a very good account of itself for any range of tests, if the machine were made sufficiently elaborate. However, this again would hardly be considered an adequate proof. Such a machine would give ._._.-. ." Size: 8vo. Seller Inventory # 008352
