Turing Test Proves 2-Year-Olds Not Human

By Francisco Rangel
Boston , MA - Researchers at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) have used the Turing Test to determine that most 2-year-old children are not human.

The Turing Test, named after Alan Turing, consists of a human (the Judge) engaging in conversation with another human, and a third party (which up to this point has always been a machine). If the Judge cannot tell which is which, then the machine passes the Turing Test. Otherwise, it is deemed just a machine.

Roger Mason and Cao Li, as part of their Doctoral thesis, have performed the Turing Test on a group of 2-year-old children, both male and female. The results show that of a group of 100 children, none passed the Turing Test.

I KNEW IT!
