AIs go up against animals in an epic competition to test intelligence

Some artificial intelligences can perform tasks with superhuman ability, but just how clever are they overall? A competition called the Animal-AI Olympics will pit AIs against tests normally used to study animal intelligence. From April, AIs will battle it out in a virtual playground for a $10,000 prize pool. All the tasks involve retrieving a piece of food, but the skills needed to succeed vary in complexity.
