OpenAI provided an overview of the contest where participants had to 1) train or script the agent to play Sonic; 2) submit the agent as a Docker container; and then agents received their 3) evaluation on a set of secret test levels; and 5) the agent's score appeared on the leaderboard. <ref name="”6”"></ref>
