Introduction
Artificial intelligence is one of the most talked about topics of the 21st century. The development of technology which has resulted in the creation and innovation of new devices that are made to mimic the behavior of human beings every dayADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "DOI" : "10.1017/S0269888900007724", "ISBN" : "9780136042594", "ISSN" : "0269-8889", "abstract" : "The long-anticipated revision of this #1 selling book offers the most comprehensive, state of the art introduction to the theory and practice of artificial intelligence for modern applications.

Their inclusion in the work set up has brought a sense of insecurity for workers in low level jobs since they are poised to replace them at any point in time in the near future. Not all machines can however mimic human behavior hence there are tests which should be ran to determine their capability in imitating human behavior. The Turing Test is one such test that has been used to determine whether a machine is artificially intelligentADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "DOI" : "10.1126/science.347.6218.116", "ISBN" : "0018-9162 VO - 42", "ISSN" : "0018-9162", "abstract" : "Concluding that there is no one test for machine intelligence, AI researchers develop a battery of research challenges A", "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "You", "given" : "Jia", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "container-title" : "Science", "id" : "ITEM-1", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2015" ] ] }, "page" : "116", "title" : "Beyond the Turing Test", "type" : "article-journal", "volume" : "347" }, "uris" : [ "/documents/?uuid=cf72416d-8c89-416f-b80b-a3a5d83aaf82" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "formattedCitation" : "(You)", "manualFormatting" : "(You, 116)", "plainTextFormattedCitation" : "(You)", "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(You)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json" }(You, 116). This paper sets out to analyze the suitability of the Turing test to its functions in the world of technology.
Basis of the Turing Test
The Turing test is a viable way of testing whether a machine is artificially intelligent. The structure through which the test has been made has resulted in some breakthroughs which have led to the development of other tests such as the Winograd Schema ChallengeADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "DOI" : "10.1145/2380656.2380674", "ISBN" : "0001-0782", "ISSN" : "00010782", "abstract" : "Computers interacting with, not imitating, humans is the way forward.", "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "French", "given" : "Robert M.", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "container-title" : "Communications of the ACM", "id" : "ITEM-1", "issue" : "12", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2012" ] ] }, "page" : "74", "title" : "Moving beyond the Turing test", "type" : "article-journal", "volume" : "55" }, "uris" : [ "/documents/?uuid=c7a45a2b-5049-46fd-afa8-b6cd8f85b1dd" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "formattedCitation" : "(French)", "manualFormatting" : "(French, 74)", "plainTextFormattedCitation" : "(French)", "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(French)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json" }(French, 74). For a machine to convince a group of humans that it is artificially intelligent, it has to be highly sophisticated. The script that governs the operation of the machines should be well written to avoid the emergence of bug...
