What is Turing’s Test

Handbook of Research on Applied Data Science and Artificial Intelligence in Business and Industry
In 1950 Alan Turing proposed an important condition for considering a machine to be intelligent. He emphasised that if the machines could successfully pass a test that it is a human to a knowledgeable observer then we certainly should consider it intelligent.

Abstract
This chapter aims to create new knowledge regarding artificial intelligence (AI) ethics and relevant subjects while reviewing ethical relationship between human beings and AI/robotics and linking between the moral fabric or the ethical issues of AI as used in fictions and films. It carefully analyses how a human being will love robot and vice versa. Here, fictions and films are not just about technology but about their feelings and the nature of bonding between AIs and the human race. Ordinary human beings distrust and then start to like AIs. However, if the AI becomes a rogue as seen in many fictions and films, then the AI is taken down to avoid the destruction of the human beings. Scientists like Turing are champions of robot/AI's feelings. Fictional and movie AIs are developed to keenly watch and comprehend humans. These actions are so close to empathy they amount to consciousness and emotional quotient.
