Alan Turing secretly developed a portable voice encryption device called Delilah at Hanslope Park during World War II, condensing massive equipment into three shoebox-sized units that were ...

Artificial intelligence systems can now convince you they are human. Two large language models have passed the Turing test, which determines if a machine can “show the same intelligence as a human ...

An important scientific benchmark that has lasted for over seven decades has been broken by artificial intelligence (AI). A new breakthrough study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy ...

For months, the leading AI coding benchmarks have told enterprise buyers a comforting but misleading story: the top models are all roughly the same. OpenAI's GPT-5 family, Anthropic's Claude Opus, and ...

A new University of California San Diego study unveils the first empirical evidence that a modern artificial intelligence system can pass the Turing test—a major scientific benchmark that asks whether ...

Summary: A milestone cognitive science study unveiled the first definitive empirical evidence that modern artificial intelligence can pass the iconic Turing test. The randomized, controlled study ...

New UC San Diego research suggests the line between human and machine is increasingly drawn around social behavior as much as knowledge UC San Diego researchers ran a rigorous three-party Turing test ...

Gilles Brassard and Charles H. Bennett could not have known it at the time, but their conversation in the waters of a San Juan beach eventually led to an entirely new field of computer science and the ...

In the 1980s, Charles Bennett and Gilles Brassard created a new kind of encryption that would be impregnable. By Cade Metz Cade Metz has reported on quantum technologies since the 1990s. In the ...

Years before emails, internet banking, cloud servers and cryptocurrency wallets, two scientists devised a way to keep secrets perfectly safe and indecipherable to eavesdropping outsiders. Their 1984 ...

One afternoon in October 1979, Gilles Brassard was swimming outside a beachfront hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico, when a stranger swam up to him and changed the course of his career. Without so much as ...
