"In the domain of making appointments, it passes the Turing test," Hennessy said Wednesday at I/O, during a talk about the future of computing.īut he was quick to stress that it passes in only one specific way - in the distinctive task of booking appointments. The test is a way of evaluating a machine's intelligence - to pass, a robot must behave in a way indistinguishable to a human. It's so convincing that Hennessy, a former president of Stanford University, said Duplex passes the test proposed in 1950 by English computer scientist Alan Turing.
