Answer Details
The test used to determine if a computer has the ability to think is called the Turing test. The Turing test was proposed by the mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing as a way to determine if a machine can exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. The test involves a human evaluator who engages in a natural language conversation with a machine and a human, without knowing which is which, and tries to determine which is the machine based on their responses. If the evaluator is unable to reliably distinguish the machine from the human, the machine is said to have passed the Turing test and demonstrated human-like intelligence.
