yes, but I never understood it as that. I thought it was more a philosophical thought experiment about humans and a reply to people who don't/didn't believe in (strong) AI. "You think humans are intelligent and have conciousness - but how do you know that another person has that?"
- teddyh 6y ago> "You think humans are intelligent and have conciousness - but how do you know that another person has that?" That was more the point of the “Chinese room” thought experiment. I always understood the Turing test to be the ultimate form of “When computers can do <thing>, they can be considered to be truly intelligent.” to put an end to all other such definitions which had been previously put forward as possibile criteria for machine intelligence.
