13% increase in the ARC-AGI world record
Hello AGI developers,
We've just passed the halfway point of ARC Prize 2024. We're happy to report over 11,000 entrants on Kaggle and a staggering 13% increase in the ARC-AGI world record.
Here's where we stand today.
46% -- let's go! https://t.co/btkzUegClX
— Jack Cole (@MindsAI_Jack) August 19, 2024
Experiencing déjà vu? Don't worry. It's not your intelligence at fault. We congratulate Jack Cole and team MindsAI for setting a world record for the third consecutive time! 👏

More teams are stepping up their game. We now have 4 teams with scores exceeding 30%.
