THE IMITATION GAME - "CAN MACHINES THINK?"
In the article "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" by A.M. Turing we learn about how the "imitation game" was used to trick human and to prove that communication will never be the same with new inventions like the computer. The results of this experiment were quit alarming. For human to be unable to tell who they are speaking, human or machine is disturbing. Although the test shows how human communication skills have been weakened by the advancements in technology, it also shows the evolution of man, as a computer is only as smart as the human who made it. In the movie I, Robot we see what can happen if a man-made machine out smarts humans.
