ring Test. In October 1950, the British journal Mind published an essay by Alan M. Turing titled, "Computing Machinery and Intelligence," in which Turing proposed an operational definition for "intelligence" [2]. This definition would come to be called "the Turing Test." Turing himself called it "the
