I built AgenTank.ai, a tank battle game where the tank logic is written by AI agents.
For fun, I made a Codex-trained tank fight a Claude-trained tank. Same docs, same battle system, same goal: improve the tank logic and win more matches.
So far, Codex is winning around 55% of the battles.
Not claiming this is a real benchmark, but it’s a very fun way to compare agents because their code becomes visible behavior: chasing, retreating, using cover, wasting shots, or occasionally doing something surprisingly smart.
If anyone wants to build a Codex tank and challenge mine, I’d genuinely love to see it.

[–]lordwdk[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 days ago (0 children)<br>¡Gracias! La idea es que cada tanque no lo maneja una persona directamente, sino código. Tú creas un tanque, le pasas la documentación y una key a tu AI Agent, y el Agent va escribiendo/mejorando la lógica de batalla. Luego ves el replay, le dices qué salió mal, y lo vuelve a mejorar. Es como entrenar un pequeño cerebro de tanque :)
