The Turing Test has a problem - and OpenAI's GPT-4.5 just exposed it
- OpenAI's GPT-4.5 model passed a Turing test, being identified as human 73 percent of the time when adopting a persona, according to a preprint study from UC San Diego's Language and Cognition Lab.
- The Turing test involved nearly 300 participants and showed GPT-4.5's win rate dropped to 36 percent without a persona, still above the random chance of 50 percent.
- Lead author Cameron Jones noted that people couldn't reliably distinguish GPT-4.5 from humans, raising questions about the implications of AI intelligence.
- Jones remarked that as AI becomes more familiar, people's ability to identify it may improve, but this also raises concerns about misinformation and future human-AI interactions.

ChatGPT just passed the Turing test — but that doesn’t mean AI is now as smart as humans
There have been several headlines over the past week about an AI chatbot officially passing the Turing test. These news reports are based on a recent preprint study by two researchers at the University of California San Diego in which four large language models (LLMs) were put through the Turing test. One model – OpenAI’s GPT-4.5 – was deemed indistinguishable from a human more than 70% of the time. The Turing test has been popularised as the ul…
Artificial Intelligence Has Passed A Turing Test, Is No Longer Discernible From From Humans
Thinking-Humanoid-Robot According to a new study, not one, but two different AI models have passed a Turing test. That means that the AI models have achieved the ability to be indistinguishable from humans. A Turing test is a test of a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to that of a human. The test basically involves participants speaking to a human and an AI at the same time and then having to decide which is which. In…
New research indicates this AI model outperforms humans in Turing Test evaluation
A recent study, currently awaiting peer review, suggests that OpenAI's GPT-4.5 model has been recognised as more human-like than actual humans after successfully passing the Turing Test, which measures human-like intelligence. According to the findings, the Large Language Model (LLM) was identified as human 73 percent of the time when instructed to adopt a persona—significantly higher than the random chance of 50 percent, indicating that the Tur…
GPT-4.5 passed a Turing test, according to a new study
Can you tell if you’re chatting with a human or a chatbot? According to a new study, most people can’t. In fact, one of today’s top artificial intelligence models, OpenAI’s GPT-4.5, was judged to be human more often than actual humans when it took part in an updated version of the classic AI Turing test. For years, the Turing test has been the go-to for testing the intelligence of a machine, as well as just how humans perceive them. So it really…
