ARC Prize
The North Star for AGI — open-source benchmarks and prizes.

ARC Prize Foundation is a nonprofit that builds scientifically grounded benchmarks to measure progress toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). Their flagship ARC-AGI benchmark series is designed to be easy for humans but hard for AI, exposing gaps in current AI capabilities. They also run prize competitions in partnership with Kaggle to incentivize open-source breakthroughs in AGI research.
ARC Prize creates and maintains the ARC-AGI benchmark series and runs open prize competitions on Kaggle, rewarding researchers who achieve novel, open-source progress on the benchmark.
