Resumen
In October 1950, British logician and computing pioneer Alan Turing examined the possibility of intelligence embodied in a computer. He devised a chat-session imitation game as a tool for determining whether a computing machine might exhibit intelligent behavior. Over the past 50 years , much debate has ensued as to the validity of Turing's approach in diagnosing intelligence. Rather than add to this imbroglio, it is believed that 50 years after Turing's article it is timely to consider more directly the effects of success in building such an imitation device; granted that a computing machine passes the Turing test, it is questionable if intelligence alone would make it useful to its human creators. Circumventing altogether the debate on machine intelligence and on its certifiability via the Turing test, a machine that passes the test is branded with the sigil "Turing Chatterbox," Assuming the existence of machines so labelled, it is doubtful if these chatterboxes would be of any use.
