Turing Test
• is designed to satisfactorily identify if the machine is intelligent
• to pass the test, the machine should possess the following:
o natural language processing to enable it to communicate successfully
o knowledge representation to store information provided before or during the interrogation
o machine learning to adapt to new circumstances and to detect and
extrapolate patterns
o computer vision to perceive objects
o robotics to move about
