A new AI coding challenge just published its first results – and they aren’t pretty
The Laude Institute, in collaboration with Databricks and Perplexity co-founder Andy Konwinski, launched the K Prize, a multi-round AI coding challenge. The first winner of the challenge was announced on Wednesday at 5 pm PST. The winner was a Brazilian AI engineer who was able to complete the challenge, which involved writing code to solve a complex problem. However, the results of the challenge have been described as "not pretty," indicating that the level of performance by the AI systems was not as high as expected. The challenge was designed to push the boundaries of AI-powered software engineering, and the initial results suggest that there is still work to be done in this area.
