Robots pass self-awareness test
 

A researcher at the Ransselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York have built a robot that have passed the classic ‘wise men puzzle’ test of self-awareness.

The wise men puzzle is based on a story. A king is choosing a new advisor and gathers the three wisest people in the land. He promises the contest will be fair, then puts either a blue or white hat on each of their heads and tells them all that the first person to stand up and correctly deduce the colour of their own hat will become his new advisor.
