Sense organs are an unnecessary addition to the test
OpposingArgument
1
#247
The addition of sense organs doesn't make the test any more demanding than it already is—and therefore is unnecessary—because the Turing test indirectly tests sense-based capabilities.
Daniel Dennett, 1985.
Note
: The way in which (it is argued that) the Turing Test indirectly tests sense-based capabilities is examined in
'The Quick Probe Assumption'
, Box 50.

Can the Turing Test determine this? [2] ☜Is the Turing Test—proposed by Alan Turing in 1950—an adequate test of thinking? Can it determine whether a machine can think? If a computer passess the test by persuading judges via a teletyped conversation that its human can it be said to think?☜FFB597

The Turing test is too narrow
The Turing test is too narrow☜The Turing test is limited in scope. It narrowly focuses on one ability—the ability to engage in human conversation—and is therefore inadequate as a test of general intelligence.☜98CE71

The Sense Organs Objection
The Sense Organs Objection☜The Turing Test neglects perceptual aspects of intelligence. A machine might pass the test via competent verbal behaviour but fail to understand how its words relate to the perceptual world. An adequate test requires a machine with sensory apparatus.☜98CE71
