Turing Test Competition At CalTech

Posted by timothy on from the move-near-a-major-target-first dept.

Charles Dodgeson writes "The Turing Tournament at Cal Tech wants to know if you can program an emulator that will play games like a human, or if can you write detector that can correctly sort the wetware from the software. Before you get too excited, the "games" are very limited things. But there is a $10,000 prize for the winner. You can read the gory details."

  1. Minor gripe: it's "Caltech"... by w3woody · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    It's "Caltech", no intercaps, not "Cal Tech", or "CalTech" or whatever other odd spelling that the press came up with last week because no-one pays attention. "Caltech."

    Sorry; it's a relative minor gripe from an ex-Lloydie...

  2. Flash version... by redhairedneo · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    A flash version of the game is available here for those too lazy to download.

    Enjoy!
