Mirror Turing Test: soul test based on poetry.

With the rapid development of machine intelligence, an increasing number of websites and servers have been amicably visited or sometimes attached by intelligent machines intensively. Therefore, how to empower a host machine to intelligently distinguish intelligent machines from humans is a challenging work. In this paper, the Mirror Turing Test (MTT) is conceived and implemented. Unlike the standard Turing Test, the tester in the MTT is replaced by a machine instead of a human. Current advancements on deep learning enable machines to recognize subtle differences between genuine and counterfeit works. Sometimes, the ability of machines is even superior to that of humans. Will machines transcend humans in an irreversible trend? Not completely right. The detection of soul in an artwork remains far beyond the capacity of machines. The two sets of MTT based on poetry generated by a machine and a novel imitated by a human were conducted in this paper and neither of them passed the MTT. Poetry is one of the art forms in which authors reveal their souls. Thus, we chose poetry in the MTT experiments on the basis of our soul computing model, thus clearly discriminating machine from human. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
