Concretely, it tackles the problem of devising an algorithm that is able to play any game it is given, even if the game is not known a priori. Additionally, the contests poses the challenge of creating level and rule generators for any game is given. This area of study can be seen as an approximation of General Artificial Intelligence, with very little room for game dependent heuristics.

The annual [[Arimaa#Arimaa Challenge|Arimaa Challenge]] offered a $10,000 prize until the year 2020 to develop a program that plays the board game [[Arimaa]] and defeats a group of selected human opponents. In 2015, David Wu's bot bot_sharp beat the humans, losing only 2 games out of 9.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://arimaa.com/arimaa/challenge/2015/showGames.cgi|title=2015 Arimaa Challenge Match|website=arimaa.com|access-date=2015-09-26|archive-date=2015-10-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151019162359/http://arimaa.com/arimaa/challenge/2015/showGames.cgi|url-status=live}}</ref> As a result, the Arimaa Challenge was declared over and David Wu received the prize of $12,000 ($2,000 being offered by third-parties for 2015's championship).
[[2K Australia]] is offering a prize worth A$10,000 to develop a game-playing bot that plays a [[first-person shooter]]
The [[Google AI Challenge]]<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ai-contest.com/index.php |title=
[[Cloudball]] had its first round in Spring 2012 and finished on June 15. It is an international artificial intelligence programming contest, where users continuously submit the actions their soccer teams will take in each time step, in simple high level [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]] code.
The [[International Olympiad in Artificial Intelligence]] for high-school students was established in 2024 and consists of two rounds: in the scientific round, participants solve problems in different subfields of AI, and in the practical round, participants use existing AI tools to produce a visual result.
