Turing Test

The Turing test, originally called the imitation game by Alan Turing in 1950, is a test of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. Turing proposed that a human evaluator would judge natural language conversations between a human and a machine designed to generate human-like responses. The evaluator would be aware that one of the two partners in conversation was a machine, and all participants would be separated from one another. The conversation would be limited to a text-only channel, such as a computer keyboard and screen, so the result would not depend on the machine's ability to render words as speech. If the evaluator could not reliably tell the machine from the human, the machine would be said to have passed the test. The test results would not depend on the machine's ability to give correct answers to questions, only on how closely its answers resembled those a human would give. - Turing Test | Wikipedia

What is a Turing Test? A Brief History of the Turing Test and its Impact
What is a Turing Test

Is a computer as smart as a human? Only a Turing Test will tell -- plus its many spin-offs. A Turing Test is a method of determining whether a computer is capable of thinking like a human. Watch to learn what a Turing Test is and how it relates to AI technology.

Will ChatGPT Pass The Turing Test? Let's Find Out!
I have been testing ChatGPT for the past few days and it has been nothing short of spectacular. Now the moment of truth is upon is: Will it pass the Turing Test? Find out in this video. Will it exhibit intelligence that will fool humans into thinking it's not a machine? You'd be surprised!

ChatGPT says:

"The Turing Test is a measure of a machine's ability to exhibit intelligent behavior that is indistinguishable from that of a human. It was first proposed by the British mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing in 1950. The basic idea of the test is that a human evaluator engages in a text-based conversation with both a human and a machine, without knowing which is which. If the evaluator is unable to reliably determine which is the human and which is the machine, then the machine is said to have passed the Turing Test and demonstrated human-like intelligence.

The Turing Test has become an influential concept in the field of artificial intelligence and continues to be an active area of research and development. While some AI systems have been able to fool evaluators into thinking they are human in limited cases, no machine has yet passed the Turing Test in a comprehensive and sustained manner. Nonetheless, the Turing Test remains a useful benchmark for evaluating the progress of AI and a means for stimulating discussion about the nature of human intelligence and the potential for machines to possess similar capabilities."

Chinese Room Thought Experiment

The Chinese Room Experiment is a thought experiment proposed by John Searle in 1980 to argue against the claim that a computer can have a mind or be conscious. Searle's argument has been criticized by some philosophers and computer scientists. However, it remains a powerful argument against the claim that computers can have a mind or be conscious.

In the experiment, Searle imagines himself locked in a room with a set of rules for manipulating Chinese symbols. The rules are written in English, which Searle understands, but the Chinese symbols are meaningless to him. He is given Chinese characters on slips of paper, which he then processes according to the rules. He then produces Chinese characters on slips of paper in response. To an outside observer, it would appear that Searle understands Chinese and is having a conversation with them. However, Searle himself does not understand Chinese at all. He is simply following the rules blindly.

Searle argues that this shows that a computer, which is essentially a machine that follows rules, cannot be said to understand Chinese or to have a mind. The computer may be able to produce intelligent-sounding output, but it does not have the same kind of understanding that a human being has.

The Chinese Room Experiment has been widely discussed and debated by philosophers and computer scientists. Some have argued that Searle's argument is flawed, while others have agreed with his conclusion. The Chinese Room Experiment is a complex and challenging thought experiment, and there is no easy answer to the question of whether or not it succeeds in its goal. However, it is a thought-provoking experiment that has helped to shape the debate about artificial intelligence and the nature of mind. Here are some of the key points of Searle's argument:

  • Understanding a language is not just about manipulating symbols according to rules. It also requires having a grasp of the meaning of the symbols.
  • A computer can manipulate symbols, but it does not have the same kind of understanding that a human being has.
  • The Chinese Room Experiment shows that a computer cannot be said to understand Chinese, even if it can produce intelligent-sounding output.

Large Language Model (LLM) Evaluation

Benchmarks for an LLM:

  • Ability to add attachments to prompts: attachments, such as images or documents, the use of attachments allows an LLM to incorporate additional information beyond the textual prompt, which can improve its ability to generate accurate and relevant responses. Claude 2: prompts can include attachments
  • Performance on the bar exam multiple-choice section: The bar exam is a standardized test that is required to practice law in the United States. The multiple-choice section tests knowledge of legal concepts and principles. Claude 2: Scored 76.5%
  • Performance on the GRE reading and writing exams: a standardized test that is often required for admission to graduate programs. The reading and writing sections test reading comprehension, analytical writing, and critical thinking skills. Claude 2: A score above the 90th percentile indicates that the LLM is highly proficient in these skills.
  • Performance on the GRE quantitative reasoning exam: This section tests mathematical and analytical skills. Claude 2: A score similar to the median applicant indicates that the LLM has average proficiency in these skills.
  • Input length limit: the maximum length of the input prompt that an LLM can handle. A token is a sequence of characters that represents a unit of meaning in natural language processing. Claude 2: A limit of 100K tokens per prompt means that the LLM can handle prompts of up to 100,000 tokens in length.
  • Context window limit: Maximum amount of context that an LLM can consider when generating a response to a prompt. Claude 2: A context window of up to 100K means that the LLM can consider up to 100,000 tokens of context when generating a response.
  • Code Generation on HumanEval: This test evaluates the LLM's ability to write code that meets certain criteria, such as correctness and efficiency. Claude 2 on Python coding test: 71.2%

A Survey on Evaluation of Large Language Models

  • A Survey on Evaluation of Large Language Models | Y. Chang, X. Wang, J. Wang, Y. Wu, L. Yang, K. Zhu, H. Chen, X. Yi, C. Wang, Y. Wang, W. Ye, Y. Zhang, Y. Chang,P. Yu, Q. Yang, X. Xie - ARxIV ... The survey covers seven major categories of LLM trustworthiness:
    • Reliability: LLMs should be able to consistently generate accurate and truthful outputs, even when presented with new or challenging inputs.
    • Safety: LLMs should not generate outputs that are harmful or dangerous, such as outputs that promote violence or hate speech.
    • Fairness: LLMs should not discriminate against any individual or group of individuals, regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation, or other protected characteristics.
    • Resistance to misuse: LLMs should be designed in a way that makes it difficult for them to be used for malicious purposes, such as generating fake news or propaganda.
    • Explainability and reasoning: LLMs should be able to explain their reasoning behind their outputs, so that users can understand how they work and make informed decisions about how to use them.
    • Adherence to social norms: LLMs should generate outputs that are consistent with social norms and values, such as avoiding offensive language or promoting harmful stereotypes.
    • Robustness: LLMs should be able to withstand attacks and manipulation, such as being fed deliberately misleading or harmful data.

Evaluating Large Language Models on Legal Reasoning

LegalBench: The advent of large language models (LLMs) and their adoption by the legal community has given rise to the question: what types of legal reasoning can LLMs perform? To enable greater study of this question, we present LegalBench: a collaboratively constructed legal reasoning benchmark consisting of 162 tasks covering six different types of legal reasoning. LegalBench was built through an interdisciplinary process, in which we collected tasks designed and hand-crafted by legal professionals. Because these subject matter experts took a leading role in construction, tasks either measure legal reasoning capabilities that are practically useful, or measure reasoning skills that lawyers find interesting. To enable cross-disciplinary conversations about LLMs in the law, we additionally show how popular legal frameworks for describing legal reasoning -- which distinguish between its many forms -- correspond to LegalBench tasks, thus giving lawyers and LLM developers a common vocabulary. This paper describes LegalBench, presents an empirical evaluation of 20 open-source and commercial LLMs, and illustrates the types of research explorations LegalBench enables.

Natural Language Processing (NLP) Evaluation

General Language Understanding Evaluation (GLUE)

The General Language Understanding Evaluation (GLUE) benchmark is a collection of resources for training, evaluating, and analyzing natural language understanding systems... like picking out the names of people and organizations in a sentence and figuring out what a pronoun like “it” refers to when there are multiple potential antecedents. GLUE consists of:

  • A benchmark of nine sentence- or sentence-pair language understanding tasks built on established existing datasets and selected to cover a diverse range of dataset sizes, text genres, and degrees of difficulty,
  • A diagnostic dataset designed to evaluate and analyze model performance with respect to a wide range of linguistic phenomena found in natural language, and
  • A public leaderboard for tracking performance on the benchmark and a dashboard for visualizing the performance of models on the diagnostic set.

Machine Learning Model Evaluation Metrics
MARIA KHALUSOVA | DEVELOPER ADVOCATE AT JETBRAINS Choosing the right evaluation metric for your machine learning project is crucial, as it decides which model you’ll ultimately use. Those coming to ML from software development are often self-taught, but practice exercises and competitions generally dictate the evaluation metric. In a real-world scenario, how do you choose an appropriate metric? This talk will explore the important evaluation metrics used in regression and classification tasks, their pros and cons, and how to make a smart decision.

Backtracking

Backtracking is a general algorithmic technique that considers searching every possible combination in order to solve a computational problem. It incrementally builds candidates to the solutions and abandons a candidate’s backtracks as soon as it determines that the candidate cannot be completed to a reasonable solution. In machine learning, backtracking can be used to solve constraint satisfaction problems, such as crosswords, verbal arithmetic, Sudoku, and many other puzzles.
