Turing introduced the Imitation Game as a way to explore the question: \"Can machines think?\" The Total Turing Test later expanded this concept beyond purely verbal communication, incorporating perceptual and physical interaction. Building on this, we propose a new guiding question: \"Can machines react?\" and introduce the React to This (RTT) test for nonverbal behaviors, presenting results from an initial experiment.","short_abstract":"We propose an approach to test embodied AI agents for interaction awareness and believability, particularly in scenarios where humans push them to their limits.
