GPT 4.5 Passes the Turing Test
The LLM models now have human-like intelligence.
AI models can now have human-like intelligence. Researchers from the University of California, San Diego, published a study on LLMs passing the Turing Test. They found “the first empirical evidence that any artificial system passes a standard three-party Turing test.”
What is the Turing Test?
The Turing Test is a test to know a machine’s ability to show human-like intelligence and behavior. It was first proposed by Alan Turing in 1950 in his paper “Computing Machinery and Intelligence.”
The Turing Test setup includes a human judge who interacts with both a human and an AI through text-based communication. The judge does not know which is a human or an AI. If the AI can convince the judge that it is a human — a real human then it is said to have passed the test.
The Turing Test is a benchmark for artificial intelligence for measuring a machine to behave like a real human being. It doesn't mean it understands like a human but mimics a human-like response.
The Study
A new study from UC San Diego claims that GPT-4.5 was judged to be human 73% of the time when prompted to adopt a human-like intelligence — suggesting it passes the Turing Test.
