The test uses a simple question-answer procedure between a human questioner and two anonymous answerers who are not visible to the questioner. The structure and procedure of the Turing test couldn’t be any simpler. The goal was and is to be able to speak of artificial intelligence or machine intelligence in the case of machine communication behavior that is indistinguishable from humans. Since artificial neural networks according to the principle neural network did not yet play a major role in the debate about artificial intelligence and objective scientific proof of thought processes was a long way off, observable analyses of communication with machines were used for this purpose. In his article “ Computing machinery and intelligence”, published in the journal “Mind”, Turing outlined the basic features of an experimental set-up now famous as the Turing Test, but known at the time as the “Imitation Game”. He intensively studied the problem of artificial intelligence and its criteria during his work on one of the first legendary tube computers called Manchester Mark I at the University of Manchester. The Turing Test was invented and developed by the eponymous British mathematician, computer scientist and logician Alan Turing in 1950.
