PRIZES

The prizes for each year include:

  • $2,000 for the most human-seeming of all bots for that year - awarded every year. In 2005, the prize was increased to $3,000, and the prize will be $2,250 in 2006.

  • $25,000 for the first bot that judges cannot distinguish from a real human in a text-only based Turing Test (awarded once only)

  • $100,000 to the first bot that judges cannot distinguish from a real human in a Turing Test that includes deciphering and understanding text, visual, and auditory input.


The Loebner Prize dissolves once the $100,000 prize is won.

Dr. Hugh Loebner established the prize in conjunction with the Cambridge Center For Behavioral Studies .
