Today, the Vladimir Visilov of Turing Test 2014, the University of the United Kingdom, issued a press release claiming that the artificial intelligence software Yukin Gustmann (Eugene Goostman), which was founded by Vladimir Veselov, had passed the Turing test. If this conclusion is confirmed, it will be a milestone in the history of artificial intelligence and computers.

The Turing Test was proposed 65 years ago by the father of modern computer science, the British Alan. The Turing test, when the tester separates the tester (a person and a machine), uses some device (such as a keyboard) to ask questions to the person being tested. After asking a few questions, if more than 30% of the respondents could not make the tester confirm which is the person, which is the machine answer, then the machine passed the test, and is considered to be human intelligence.

Yukin Gustmann (Eugene Goostman) is an intelligent software developed by Russian Vladimir Veselov (now in the United States), mimicking a 13-year-old boy. On Turing's Test 2012, Eugene got the first place, with a score of 29.2%, a step away from Turing's test. In a 5-game Turing Test contest this year, Eugene managed to convince the tester that 33% of the respondents were human. This means that the supercomputer passed the Turing test.

Kevin Warwick, a visiting professor at the University of Lei, said that despite previous claims that the Turing Test had been passed, the standard of the activity was the most stringent and did not make any assumptions about the problem. So they proudly announced that the Turing Test was first approved.

The human representative of the test was Robert Llewellyn, the robot's actor in the British classic sci-fi comedy "Red Dwarf", and Lord Sharkey, the LDP who proposed a pardon for Turing last year.
