A determined machine can still have free will »
A determined machine can still have free will
A determined machine can still have free willâHumans and computers are both deterministic systems, but this is still compatible with their being free. Actions caused by an agents beliefs and desires are free because if those factors had been different the agent might have acted differently.âFFFACD

Turing's randomizer is only a tiebreaker »
Turing's randomizer is only a tiebreaker
Turing's randomizer is only a tiebreakerâHelplessness argument is misleading because it implies that random processes control all decision making. All the Turing randomizer does is determine what the machine will do in situations in which options are equally preferred.âFFFACD

Programs not universally realizable »
Programs not universally realizable
Programs not universally realizableâEven if it is ture that a pattern of molecule movements on a wall is isomorphic with, for example, the formal pattern of the WordStar computer program, the wall will not support the same counterfactuals as the program.âFFFACD

The Systems reply to the Chinese Gym »
The Systems reply to the Chinese Gym
The Systems reply to the Chinese GymâSearles Chinese Gym argument commits the same fallacy as the Chinese Room argument commits. It is invalid to infer that the gym as a whole doesnât understand Chinese from the fact that the individuals in the gym donât understand Chinese.âFFFACD

Neurons are diversely structured »
Neurons are diversely structured
Neurons are diversely structuredâComputer logic gates consist of variations on a single structure. The brain, by contrast, consists of many different kinds of neuronos (e.g. Pyramidal cells, Purkinje cells & Retinal Bipolar cells. âFFFACD

The "part-of" principle is fallacious »
The "part-of" principle is fallacious
The "part-of" principle is fallaciousâThe internalization reply rest on a fallacious part-of principle, whereby, if you cant do X, no part of you can do X. Just because the man who has internalized the Chinese Room cant speak Chinese, it does not follow that no part of him can speak âFFFACD

Intelligent machines could fail the test »
Intelligent machines could fail the test
Intelligent machines could fail the testâAn intelligent machine could fail the Turing Test by acting nonhuman, by being psychologically unsophisticatedâthough intelligentâor simply by being bored with the proceedings.âFFFACD
►
Some intelligent beings would fail the test »
Some intelligent beings would fail the test
Some intelligent beings would fail the testâChimpanzees, dolphins and prelinguistic infants can think but would fail the Turing test. If a thinking animal could fail the test, then presumably a thinking machine could too.âFFFACD
►
Nondecisive tests can be useful »
Nondecisive tests can be useful
Nondecisive tests can be usefulâThe Turing Test isnt a definitive litmus test for intelligence, and failing isnt decisive, but this doesnt make it a bad test. Many good tests are nondecisive but useful.âFFFACD

Sense organs not prohibited by Turing »
Sense organs not prohibited by Turing
Sense organs not prohibited by TuringâThe Turing test does not prohibit machines with sense organs from entering. In fact, Turing thought the best way to prepare a computer for competition would be to give it sensory abilities and an appropriate education.âFFFACD

Some simulations are duplications »
Some simulations are duplications
Some simulations are duplicationsâSome simulations lack essential features of the object simulatedâeg theatrical death vs real death. Others capture the essential features despite being produced in nonstandard waysâeg artificial coal. The latter are duplications: the former are not.âFFFACD
►
A man simulating a woman is not a woman »
A man simulating a woman is not a woman
A man simulating a woman is not a womanâIf a man were to win the imitation game, he would only have succeeded in simulating a woman. He would, obviously, not be a woman. Therefore the imitation game is not an adequate test.âFFFACD
►
The black box objection »
The black box objection
The black box objectionâThe Test treats the mind as a black boxâinternal processes are left hidden and mysterious; all that matters is input and output. But internal processing shouldnt be ignored, as its crucial to determining whether or not a system really thinks.âFFFACD

SUPER PARRY could pass Test by brute force »
SUPER PARRY could pass Test by brute force
SUPER PARRY could pass Test by brute forceâAn advanced alien civilisation could write a program, like, Colbys PARRY, containing ready made responses to questions. This SUPER PARRY would be better prepared for the test, however, because it would contain responses to all possible questions.âFFFACD

Machine prepared for repeated sentences »
Machine prepared for repeated sentences
Machine prepared for repeated sentencesâThe aliens would design the program to anticipate repeated sentences and to reply with increasingly irritable responses ultimately terminating altogether.âFFFACD
►
Machine prepared for subsitution tricks »
Machine prepared for subsitution tricks
Machine prepared for subsitution tricksâBecause there are only a finite number of substitution tricks SUPER PARRY could be built to handle all of them.âFFFACD
►
The beefed-up Turing Test »
The beefed-up Turing Test
The beefed-up Turing TestâThe addition of a design criterion to the original Turing test ensures that the system being tested has the right kind of internal design.âFFFACD

Turing in a car crash »
Turing in a car crash
Turing in a car crashâYou and Turing are driving and your car crashesâhes gashed up but theres no blood; instead wires and silicon chips stick out of his skin. You might modify your judgment that Turing is a thinking being given this view of his internal constitution.âFFFACD
