    ### We could go the easy way and register a claim for Turing-capable machine
    by the year 20xx, specifically, the machine would have to pass repeatedly
    (30 times, 100 times?) the classic Turing test, with a human examiner, and
    one more human participant, conversing on an unrestricted range of subjects
    without allowing the examiner to differentiate between the machine and the
    human participant. This would be actually a rather stringent test, since the
    AGI would need to precisely emulate not only the cognitive capacities of the
    human, but also have convincing emotional responses.

    There was a claim for binary Turing test on ideosphere but it was retired.
