  Some implications of a sample of practical Turing tests
Warwick K., Shah H., Moor J. Minds and Machines 23(2): 163-177, 2013.  Type: Article

Certain traits of human mental activities can be represented by an algorithmic process, and hence imitated by a computer. How far can such practice go, and in particular, could a computer acquire the innermost characteristics of human ...
