Student-created AI game Monad wins 2018 Kemeny Prize

The 2018 Kemeny prize winners are Kyle Dotterrer, Gabe Boning, Robin Jayaswal, Paul Spangfort, and Tong Xu for their team entry: Monad.  As they describe it:

Monad is an artificial intelligence programming challenge. The user-facing component of the project is a web client through which users upload code that implements an artificial intelligence agent (hereafter referred to as a “bot”) intended to effectively play an original game of our design. Once a user’s bot is uploaded, matches pitting a user’s bot against 1 – 3 others are generated, and each user’s standing and statistics on the platform are updated based on the results.
