information during a conversation. This will allow them to be able to communicate effectively with a regular human-being based on the information they have collected. Although, the Turing Test, challenges this notion and reveals the truth behind what is real and what is posthuman. The Turing Test is an interview-based test

Philosophy 111A, Introduction to Philosophy: Knowledge and Reality Professor: Nicholas Ray TA: J. Roberts Student ID: 140695190 Wilfrid Laurier University Monday December 12, 2016 Short Answer 1, 2,3,4, Essay question on Moore’s belief of external world PART A: 1 Why do Parmenides and Zeno think that change/flux/motion are impossible? : Parmenides argues that 1. It is and is not possible for something not to exist, 2. Something that is there in thought and through senses must exist. He believes

The Imitation Game is a movie based on a real story, taking place in the isolated Bletchley Park in Sherborne, during WWII. Here, six chosen men, including Alan Turing, live and breathe the Enigma machine with hopes of breaking the code. Breaking it will enable them to listen to the messaged plans of the opposing Germans. Every night at midnight, the Germans alter the code settings to then be able to send a new message every morning at six am. Therefore, the code breakers only have eighteen hours

The film “Ex Machina gives the audience a view of what the future generation will become with technology advancing everyday. Caleb, a programmer at a huge company wins a contest that allows him to participate in a Turing test to determine the abilities and consciousness of a robot, Ava. In a short period of time, Caleb and Nathan realize Ava can do more than they both had imagined. Nathan, Caleb, and Ava all play an enormous part in the film with the names symbolizing how they act. Nathan is very

The Imitation Game made you think about if machines really can or cannot think. Alan was a brilliant mathematician and a very important person in World War II. He created a machine to break enigma so that the Allies could understand the messages the Nazi’s were sending out. In the movie there was a scene where Alan was being questioned about a paper he wrote titled “The Imitation Game.” Within the paper he is discussing if machines can or cannot think. Alan points out that the wrong question

personal/emotional connection. This film concentrates on the legendary life of mathematician and cryptanalyst, Alan Turing. It brings us through the story of how he was able to succeed in breaking enigma (a near impossible to crack) Nazi code. This inspiring film follows a rather unique structure when compared to other films. It goes through three different time periods; when Turing was in boarding school, when he was working on breaking the enigma, and when he was arrested and convicted of indecency

To find out whether a computer can not only hold vast amounts of data, but to be able to assess that data quickly, Jeopardy is a logical way to test it. The reason Jeopardy makes sense as a test platform is because the average contestant on Jeopardy has such a complex understanding of different subjects, viewers have often compared them to computers. Eugene Finerman told the Wall Street Journal (1990) that he had to scan over at least 200 issues of Time magazine to feel like he could answer a good

The Beginning Alan Mathison Turing was born on June 23, 1912 in London, England to Parent Julius Mathison and Ethel Sara Turing. Alan Turing was the second and last child of Ethel and Julius. The Turing family was part of the upper middle class; Julius Mathison was a part of the Indian Civil Service serving in the Madras Presidency. Ethel Sara Turing was the daughter of the chief engineer of the Madras railway. Alan and his older brother were fostered in many English homes before their father

During the film, there is a group of men and a woman trying to solve the puzzle of ‘Enigma,’ an unbreakable secret code behind the Nazis' communications machine. This group is where the loyalties lie. One of the biggest loyalties lies between Alan Turing, the main character, and Joan Clark. The inclusion of Joan Clark changes the team completely as she is the only female in the group. Her place in the project was threatened by traditional values because her parents saw her as someone’s wife. To keep

claimed variation of the Turing Test. I will argue that Ava passes the original Turing Test as well as Nathan’s claimed version of the Turing Test. I will first explain and elucidate the significance of the classical Turing Test and Nathan’s Test. Secondly, I will argue that Nathan’s “Turing Test” is not actually a version of the Turing Test but a significantly different test. Finally I will argue that Ava passes the classical Turing Test and Nathan’s Test. Alan Turing’s test attempts to answer the
