Artemiy Margaritov Wins €9000 In the First 10x Hutter Prize Award

Baldrson writes: The Hutter Prize for Lossless Compression of Human Knowledge has now awarded €9000 to Artemiy Margaritov as the first winner of the 10x expansion of the HKCP, first announced, over a year ago in conjunction with a Lex Fridman podcast!

Artemiy Margaritov's STARLIT algorithm's 1.13% cleared the 1% improvement hurdle to beat the last benchmark, set by Alexander Rhatushnyak. He receives a bonus in proportion to the time since the last benchmark was set, raising his award by 60% to €9000.

Congratulations to Artemiy Margaritov for his winning submission!
