Why are games a great way to evaluate AI? 🤔 Games like chess and Go are powerful, evergreen benchmarks for AI. As models get stronger, the games get more difficult, making them perfect for continuously challenging and improving the capabilities of AI systems. But it's not just about winning the game—it's what games represent. They're a fantastic proxy for real-world skills and test a model's abilities in: Strategic planning and reasoning Memory and adaptation "Theory of mind"—understanding an opponent's intent This is why we're building Kaggle Game Arena, an open and transparent platform for evaluating advanced AI systems. Our environments are open-sourced, and we're excited to expand with more games to test increasingly complex capabilities with the community. You can check out our environments and harnesses on GitHub: https://lnkd.in/gS-_zWhC The results from Game Arena will feed into Kaggle Benchmarks, creating dynamic leaderboards that track the performance of new models over time.

I m one of those who loves playing chess and made some chess games for blind too by giving voice commands and getting speech from the game itself .I don't know whether it exists already or not but I tried to solve the issue with my own game.

Kaggle, this initiative to use games as a benchmark for AI evaluation is both innovative and insightful. By leveraging strategic challenges like chess and Go, you not only push AI capabilities but also provide a meaningful context for testing real-world skills. I look forward to seeing how the Kaggle Game Arena evolves and contributes to our understanding of AI's potential.

This perfectly captures why games are such powerful AI benchmarks! 🙌 Chess and Go aren't just fun; their *evergreen* nature means they continuously scale in difficulty as AI improves, providing an endless challenge. What really resonates is the point that it's **not just about winning** – games are an incredible proxy for complex real-world skills. Testing **strategic planning**, **memory/adaptation**, and crucially, **"theory of mind"** (understanding intent) gets to the core of advanced reasoning we need from AI systems. That's exactly why initiatives like the Kaggle Game Arena are so exciting! An **open, transparent platform** with **open-sourced environments** is the ideal way for the community to collaboratively push the boundaries and evaluate increasingly sophisticated capabilities.👏
