#2 Might be technically doable: I feel like there has got to be a way to "cheat" this. Maybe make something that Google searches similar problems and then automatically signs up for contests under several names and submits potential code snippet answers as solutions. Your program could run the snippets in sandboxes and ensure the inputs / outputs match the example code for the problem. You do this on a large enough scale you might eventually win a few just by dumb luck + your skill at programming something to detect how well random snippets of code fit a particular problem.
- Cybiote 10y agoI think that sort of solution would work better as an educational tool or as part of an augmented programming environment. But I don't think it fits within the spirit of the task. It also would hit a ceiling really early on, if the parallel solutions to the Allen AI Science challenge are to be looked at as hints of how things might turn out.
