Turing Test
« on: March 20, 2007, 02:56:11 PM »
Hey everyone,

My name is Meagan and I'm new here.

I was wondering if anyone know a bit about the Turing Test.
I am trying to find out if there are any current supporters (preferably professionals) of the Turing Tests and its ability to prove whether or not a machine can 'think'.    :roll:

Hit me up to chat and let me know if you know of any!

Cheers!

Since Anti-Dühring was intended to summarize and popularize the doctrines of historical materialism, dialectics, and Marxian political economics, it has become the focal point for much of this debate. If Marx and Engels agreed upon a `division of labor' as Anguelov suggests, whereby Marx was to concentrate on political economy while Engels concentrated on philosophical topics, then Anti-Dühring transcended that division by incorporating sections on political economy as well as natural philosophy./2/ Thus the rather neat distinctions that [284/285] can be drawn by attributing the authorship, say, of Capital I to Marx and Dialectics of Nature to Engels are obscured in the case of Anti-Dühring.

oh wait...

you said Turing, not During...

I can't tell if you're aiming for humorous or annoying.

Humorous.

Now, since your post, and subsequent spamming, was not humorous, I must conclude you are aiming at "annoying".

You are succeeding.

Why would an FBI agent want information on a Turing Test anyway?

Maybe "Turing" means "Hacker" in some other language.

umm...I'm arguing against the test. thanks.

It's funny to see that you (Ivan?) have nothing better to do in your spare time than act like a complete and total jerk online. I can't even imagine what you are like in person, but I should hope that you are completely different.

And by the way, I wouldn't pay you for your advice if I were desperate. What makes you think you're so special?

I would say barging into a completely unfamiliar forum and asking complete strangers for help with your homework is pretty much an act of desperation.

Good luck, kiddo.
