There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Can machines think like human beings? That's a question the Turing test supposedly answers.
But what if the Turing test isn't accurate? What if there's a better way to judge artificial intelligence on how much it thinks like a human?
These are questions asked by Mark Riedl, an associate professor in the School of Interactive Computing at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Riedl suggests that a new test, Lovelace 2.0, is better in that it looks at how artificial intelligence handles creative tasks.
