Researchers in Seattle have introduced what they call a new AI grand challenge called TuringAdvice, which is centered on creating language models that generate helpful advice for humans using real-world language. The TuringAdvice challenge is based on the dynamic RedditAdvice data set. Created for the challenge, RedditAdvice is a crowdsourced data set of advice shared in the past two weeks that got the most upvotes in Reddit subcommunities. To pass the challenge, a machine must deliver advice as helpful as or better than popular human advice. As part of the TuringAdvice launch, the researchers also released a static RedditAdvice 2019 data set for training advice-giving AI models, which includes 616,000 pieces of advice from 188,000 situations shared by people in Reddit subcommunities.
