Turing test be answered. The Turing test, even if imperfect, at least provides something that can actually be measured. As such, it is a pragmatic attempt to answer a difficult philosophical question. The format of the test allows the interrogator to give the machine a wide variety of intellectual tasks. Turing wrote that "the question and answer method seems to be suitable for introducing almost any one of the fields of human endeavour that we wish to include." John Haugeland adds that "understanding the words is not enough; you have to understand the "topic" as well." To pass a well-designed Turing test,
Turing degree same level of unsolvability; each Turing degree is a collection of Turing equivalent sets, so that two sets are in different Turing degrees exactly when they are not Turing equivalent. Furthermore, the Turing degrees are partially ordered so that if the Turing degree of a set "X" is less than the Turing degree of a set "Y" then any (noncomputable) procedure that correctly decides whether numbers are in "Y" can be effectively converted to a procedure that correctly decides whether numbers are in "X". It is in this sense that the Turing degree of a set corresponds to its level
