In 1966, the computer scientist Joseph Weizenbaum created a program that seemed to be a contender for Turing Test passage. For another thing, though, there have been other programs that have claimed Turing Test passage.Īnd t wo of them, one time, talked to each other. Whether this marks the first beating of the Turing Test, the pioneering computer scientist's trial for artificial intelligence, remains a matter of debate for one thing, one of Turing's qualifications was that the human-fooling be done repeatedly. Unfortunatly, Braina is Windows only, so Mac and Linux users miss out on this.This weekend, to mark the 60th anniversary of Alan Turing's death, a chatbot named Eugene Goostman -a program pretending to be a 13-year-old Ukrainian boy-fooled one of three assembled judges into thinking that he it is human.
If you want access to all the features, you'll have to upgrade to the Pro version, which does incur a yearly subscription ($29 for a year, $59 for three years). The Lite version of Braina is free to use, and don't let the "lite" word put you off, because there's a lot in there for you to play with, experiment with, and to use (because this software is genuinely useful). During testing, I found its speech recognition to be very accurate - better than even Siri or Hey Google - and the wide range of features that it offers keeps Braina from feeling limited in scope. Rather than being focused on fancy graphics or gimmicks, Braina is very utilitarian, practical, and actually very functional. You can also send voice commands to your PC over your local Wi-Fi network using the Braina app for Android (currently there's no iOS version offered).īraina is, without a doubt, a very interesting take on AI voice assistant technology. Braina can also learn from information stored in a text file in the form of a list (such as this list of capital cities).
Play songs and videos stored locally and on online platforms such as SoundCloud and YouTubeīraina also features an artificial brain that can learn, process, and remember information from conversations you have with it.
