Doug loves to reminisce about that battling ships game; if I didn't know better I'd think he was prouder of that tournament than of Cyc itself ;)

> And do you still accept candidates ? :-)

If you mean job candidates, then yes, we definitely do!



Well does Cyc have similar success at overperforming humans?

I am employed now but I'll probably send a CV when I am looking for a change!


I don't honestly know if we've done any comparable experiments with it; we still operate somewhat like a research shop, but we've been dependent on real-world contracts since the 90s so we haven't had as much opportunity for pure research. Not for a lack of interest, of course.


I'd love to see you opposing alpha star in a StarCraft tournament. If you have Doug's ear, pitch it to him, he may miss playing with battlecruisers :-)
