The data set quality and much of the methodology is just as abysmal as the writeup... as pointed out in my second post: https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/kaggle-measuring-agi/dis...

So it must have been the "results" that moved the needle :D

They also host the arc prize challenge with prices up to 850k https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/arc-prize-2026-arc-agi-3...

Claude, write me a 1500-word lottery ticket with some charts.

Please note this Post was just renamed without my involvement from:

Blatant AI slop just won a 25K USD Deepmind Kaggle Grand Prize

into

"Evidence of inconsistencies in evaluate process and selection of winners"

That's because HN doesn't allow editorialised titles, which means injecting your own opinion into the title. The author of the linked article's opinion is still allowed. If you wanted to give your own title you would have to write the article. Even though your title was objectively more correct and useful than the one it's been renamed to.

I am the author of the linked article, so you say my opinion should be allowed in the title?

I updated my post title to reflect the original title and send a mail to the mods to restore the original title. Lets see. I was not aware of the editorialized title rule otherwise I had updated my post before linking it here.

They also removed the fact it was a competition hosted by a prestigious AI lab

your title was rewritten by AI, correct? :)

the slop doesn't bother me as much as the bowdlerized nature of said slop (and search results). sure, there was a lot of slop after the Lapsing of the Press Act (1695), but it was human slop with convictions and syphilis!

HN is paid by openai so makes sense.

No AI-negative posts on HN please lol.

That's fair and your good right. However know that my frustrations stems from spending two and a half days feeling like in the story of the emperors new clothes digging into this shit that was made king by a number of employees of one of the most prestigious AI labs.

Then write a blog post and make your point there, not in the title of the submission.

What do you think my two long posts in the discussion forum of kaggle are? I am the author and the evidence I present very much justified the original title.
