Abstract

Turing proposed his game as an operational definition of intelligence. Some years before the Italian mathematician Bruno de Finetti had showed how the concept of “bet” could be formalized by the notion of subjective probability. We will show how both approaches exhibit strong analogies and hide behind the formalism the complex debate on subjectivity and the abductive facet of human cognition.
