"The six computer programs taking part in the test are called Alice, Brother Jerome, Elbot, Eugene Goostman, Jabberwacky and Ultra Hal. Their designers will be competing for an 18-carat gold medal and $100,000 offered by the Loebner Prize in Artificial Intelligence."
The test involves whether questioners can tell whether they are communicating with a person or a machine. From the sample shown, it looks to me like the AIs have got the A part down, but the I needs work. I did love their names, though.
