The winner, however, will be decided by each team's participants voting for their favorite creations (except their own).

gollark: I think you're anthropomorphizing them too much.
gollark: Reinforcement learning is a field which exists, though.
gollark: The largest AIs around are just trained to predict the next token of text, which is very easy to test and gives good natural language understanding.
gollark: With how things are going, it seems entirely possible that you'd get something human-level in at least a few ways just by taking some current AI designs and scaling them up a few orders of magnitude.
gollark: We can make language models act "emotionally" right now, also.
