Reverse Turing test

Test of artificial intelligence A reverse Turing test is a Turing test in which failure suggests that the test-taker is human, while success suggests the test-taker is automated. Conventionally, the Turing test is conceived as having a few computer AI subjects communicate with each other and one human subject which attempts to also appear as a computer AI. After a few questions the AI subjects need to correctly guess which of the participants is a human subject. Reversal of objective Arguably the standard form of the reverse Turing test is one in which the subjects attempt to appear to be a computer rather than a human. A formal reverse Turing test follows the same format as a Turing test. Human subjects attempt to imitate the conversational style of a conversation program. Doing this well involves deliberately ignoring, to some degree, the meaning of the conversation that is immediately apparent to a human, and the simulation of the kinds of errors that conversational programs typically make. Arguably unlike the conventional Turing test, this is most interesting when the judges are very familiar with the art of conversation programs, meaning that in the regular Turing test they ca
