All about artificial intelligence
A study by researchers at the University of California, San Diego suggests that ChatGPT-4 may have passed the Turing Test. Passing the Turing Test means that a machine or artificial intelligence system has succeeded in convincing a human that it is also a human.
The Turing Test, proposed by Alan Turing in 1950, assesses a machine’s ability to exhibit human-like intelligence. In the test, if the machine can convince the human investigator that it is a human, it is considered successful.
The study was published as a preprint in arXiv It awaits peer review.

Study design and results
The study involved participants chatting for five minutes with artificial intelligence, including ChatGPT-4 and ChatGPT-3.5, or with a human. Participants were then asked to indicate whether they were talking to a human or a machine.
The results revealed that participants were only able to identify ChatGPT-4 and ChatGPT-3.5 as AI about 50% of the time, indicating the AI’s ability to convincingly mimic human conversations.
Compare with ELIZA for reference
To ensure the validity of the experiment, the researchers included ELIZA, a primitive AI program dating back to the 1960s, as a reference. ELIZA’s limited capabilities and pre-programmed responses allowed it to fool participants only 22% of the time, reinforcing the importance of ChatGPT’s performance.
This comparison helped prove that participants were not just guessing, but were actually fooling more sophisticated ChatGPT interactions.
So does ChatGPT have human intelligence?
- Despite the impressive results, the study recognizes that passing the Turing Test does not necessarily mean true intelligence.
- Participants often focused on linguistic style and social-emotional cues rather than knowledge or reasoning, suggesting that social intelligence may be a more important factor in human-like interactions.
- The researchers caution that although the results are promising, they do not indicate that AI systems are as intelligent as humans.
- AI’s ability to deceive raises concerns about its potential use in areas such as customer service, fraud, and misinformation.
- The study highlights the need for awareness and caution when deploying AI in real-world applications.
Although the study’s findings are important, they also underscore that the Turing Test, in and of itself, is not a definitive measure of intelligence. More research and more comprehensive testing are needed to fully understand the capabilities and limitations of AI systems like ChatGPT.
