If artificial intelligence emerged from artificial life it would be a competitor if we were so idiot to link the simulation in which the entity originated to the real world.
And the LORD God said, "The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever." Genesis 3:22

  If OTOH AI is designed like watson, it is indeed improbable that a malfunction leads to skynet. The human assisted AI is much more likely to end up in extermination, in fact it's happening as we speak.

> Not sure why all the girls did well and all the boys did badly. That seems off.
If the girls study more, on average, then when the matter of study is a videogame, they will emerge with a better one.

Now, for stuff who requires actual genius like 2d arcade style gameplay (it requires genius because most kind of dynamics have already been explored and the play experience has no guidelines, while in 3d one can use realism as a primary guideline) then both genders would have probably failed and we would have needed a huge sample size to make meaningful conclusions.
