Ideological Turing Test
The Turing Test, originally developed by Alan Turing in 1950 as the "imitation game," was meant to serve as a measure for intelligent-seeming behavior in machines. In essence, a user would engage with the machine at a distance, while also engaging with a human in the same way. If the user couldn't tell the difference, or was wrong about which conversational partner was the machine and which was the human, that would suggest the machine could exhibit human-like intelligent behavior.
