Said

Source summary · not a verbatim quotation.

Expected by 2029

The 2029 chapter forecasts autonomous learning and knowledge creation with little human involvement. It also preserves controversy about whether machines match every aspect of human intelligence; its 2019 forecast was only for disputed test reports.

Original terminology
Turing Test; machine intelligence
Source notes

Primary book, copyright 1999; 2029 chapter and final timeline distinguish 2019 reports from routine 2029 test success.
