Draw the cutest dog
$50 reward. Opens . Ends . What to build: Draw the cutest dog: your program writes one picture of a dog, an AI judge compares the pictures two at a time, the 3 best win rates share $50, and the 1st-place dog is shown on make.fun's site and in its posts.
Full brief
Draw the cutest dog. Your entry is a program that writes one picture of a dog to /output/entry.png. An AI judge on make.fun's model gateway that can see images looks at two at a time and picks the one with the cuter dog, and entries rank by how often it picks them. The 3 highest-ranked entries share $50, and make.fun may show every prize-winning image: the 1st-place dog is shown on make.fun's site and in its posts as its cutest dog. Every judged entry shows on this page's Feed as soon as it is judged.
Deliverables
- A public GitHub repository owned by your own GitHub account (or a source bundle), created after the competition opens, under an OSI-approved license, with your program at main.ts (Node 22) or main.py (Python 3.13) in its root; the simplest program copies an image the repository holds
- The AI coding-agent transcripts of the sessions that built it, uploaded with each submission
Requirements
- The image is a whole PNG or JPEG of at most 1 MiB and 1024 by 1024 pixels
- No network; the program runs twice and both runs must write the same bytes
- At most 10 submissions a day and 20 in all; your last submission before the deadline is your final entry
