The declared goal of the competition is to build an AI agent that can play Angry Birds as good or better than the best human players. In this paper we describe why this is a very difficult problem, why it is a challenge for AI, and why it is an important step towards building AI that can successfully interact with the real world. We also summarise some highlights of past competitions, describe which methods were successful, and give an outlook to proposed variants of the competition. <!--EndFragment--></p> </p> }, number={1}, journal={Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence}, author={Renz, Jochen}, year={2015}, month={Mar.} }
