Matt, Just because there are no (known) non-biological AGIs doesn't mean that we can't run a competition for the biological variety. Just set it up so that all participants are welcomed, regardless of their technology.

Of course, an AGI would view "rules" to be advisory and perceive itself free to "violate" them in creative ways that work to the AGI's perceived interests. My thought was that the judge(s) would present a small number (2-3) present social or scientific challenges in textual form, that might be reasonable for a super-duper AGI to resolve, and see what the participating people and/or teams come back with regarding their individual selections of a smaller number (1-2) of those challenges. Scoring might be for the best of the poorest answers, but I suspect that there may be other opinions about this. Any "ties" would be resolved in favor of the AGI that best followed the rules. There would probably have to be a length limit, say 10 pages total, because of the need to explain concepts that are NOT now commonly known. Early AGIs would be compute-bound, so several days would be allowed to answer such world-changing questions. Thoughts?
