The article here gives the information about the turing test proposed by Alan Turing to validate the computers if they can actually think or not. In this test the group of person is subjected to interact through a computer terminal with another person of computer. And the success or failure is subjected to response from test taker at the end. The article provides here two continuous reasons of support. However the professor explains that the turing test checks the behaviour of computer rather than actually answering the primary question and refutes each of the author's reason.
First, the author claims that in turing test, the one who takes test can ask any question and there is an answer from the other side. If the answer resembles to what is expected than the computer passes the test. But the professor refutes to this point by giving the example of chinese room. In this example a monolingual british man is giving the test, and the other side there is a chinese person asking question. The chinese person asks the question in chinese language. The british person shouldn't be able to give answer, but if he considers this question as a sequence of characters and the related material is available then he would be able to answer the question regardless of its meaning.
The professor from example implies that, similar is the case with computer. If a computer has enough relevant material for the question then it would pass the turing test. And this is the thing that most computers are programmed for. And with this the professor concludes that the main question whether the computer can think or not is not answered, as the computer was programmed to respond behaviorally not logically.
