The Turing test goes like this: A human judge engages in a conversation with another human, and a computer. If the judge cannot determine which conversation is from the computer, then it passes the test. Researchers are now saying that this new AI, "Rascals", could be the one to pass the test (a limited version). Passing the Turing test would be one step in the direction of real artificial intelligence, a truly epic goal.
