The 2019 Loebner Prize winner has been announced! While once again there is no recipient of the grand prize, a feat reserved for the AI that passes the Turing Test, the annual event nonetheless inspires and excites those who await singularity. The Loebner prize is offered up every year to an AI program that can beat the Turing test, a measurement of the ability for AI to mimic human thinking and response. Every year, contestants enter their AI designed to replicate human behavior in typed conversation, visual, and auditory interaction.
