It seems that every day brings a new headline about the burgeoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini—headlines that are either exciting or increasingly ...

Some of today’s most capable AI systems are refined versions of large language models (LLMs) that predict text on the basis ...

As increasingly sophisticated models like ChatGPT test the boundaries of machine intelligence – the potential consequences for society are profound. As artificial intelligence, AI, continues its rapid ...

It took an emotionally complex man to first imagine a world in which machines could ‘think’, writes Satyen K. I don’t recall ...

OpenAI's GPT-4 has become the first AI to pass the Turing Test. At least, that's what a group of researchers claim in a new study. The study, which is currently available on the preprint server arXiv, ...

A leading AI chatbot has passed a Turing Test more convincingly than a human, according to a new study. Participants in a blind test judged OpenAI’s GPT-4.5 model, which powers the latest version of ...

In 1950, Alan Turing had an answer to that question—a computer was capable of “thought” if its output was so convincing that a person interacting with it couldn ’ t distinguish its answers from those ...

64 years after the father of computer science, Alan Turing, proposed a method of testing whether a machine has obtained human-level intelligence, a 13-year-old AI boy called Eugene Goostman has ...

As I type this, just one browser tab over is a menacing spreadsheet. Impossibly long, it’s crammed with numbers and notes. I’m dreading returning to it–and wondering if I have the resolve to untangle ...

Author's rendition of a basic Turing test set-up. Sitting in between two agents (one human and one machine), a person needs to interact with both agents and determine (correctly) which is a machine.

For decades, fashion images have been retouched. But this isn’t airbrushing a real person; it’s a “person” created from scratch, a digital composite of data points, engineered to appear as a beautiful ...
