What was your experience of playing challenges against the SOLOLEARN bot ?

Hence, confirmed I'am (we as a sololearn community are also) playing against a 'SOLOLEARN' bot.Since, I am also getting challenges after a certain interval of time (I have not measured).Moreover, few minutes ago, I had momentarily turned off my C++ weapon and later turned it on again to see that this 'BOT' had challenged me in C++.Add to it the end score was 5:2 between me and sololearn, respectively. (Note: Earlier, I used to get challenges in C only )

Don't worry your device don't get hacked by this. it's sololearn official account. If you want to accept the challenge you can accept it else decline it. Nothing to worry much about that

I thought the bot was David Kocharyan one of the creators of sololearn. I presume he created the bot

When SoloLearn bot challenges me, it usually gets the answers 3/5 or 4/5 right. 😂😂

I've never lost to it. And even if I have but can't remember, it's not like the bot is going to read through this thread and correct me is it?

If bot's purpose is to get beginners started, it doesn't make sense it challenges people like me, who have already got all the challenge badges. On the other hand, I also get asked to study the Python tutorial (again) and to solve several assignments (again). Seems SoloLearn bot family just doesn't know yet how to make use of *any* data they got.

Bot seems to randomly miss answers. Will corrupt xp system even further (if possible).

silentlearner I see 3 the most probable reasons for that: 1. it depends on the user's amount of xp in the target language. 2. it is to some degree randomized. 3. the bot just hates some users (which would mean either it is not a bot or that the sololearn devs have made incredible progress in the AI field)

HonFu hm, that isn't a very good quality indicator for an app that is supposed to teach us programming. I suppose most of the content is created by the users themselves though (lessons, quizzes, challenges) (?). /* I kind of understand now why they have a "create a bot" assignment there. */

Atharva Kadegaonkar, do you think the bot has to train? The data is there, it can just access the correct answer and will have 5 of 5 every single time.

I see it as an introduction to challenges, nothing more. I've been challenged by it as well. If my memory serves, the bot got only 2/5 answers right, which made it véry easy to win. Obviously it's done on purpose this way so beginners could get some challenge experience. I turned off my weapons since then though because at this point the challenges don't seem the best way to learn to me. Couldn't care less about xp.

{ 𝄋 ℒ 𝄋 } The main language tutorials are SoloLearn's. Only from these you get the 'certificates'. So feeding the user suggestions for tutorials they haven't done yet, shouldn't be very hard. Few areas look sloppy, like the infamous exception handling. ;)

Atharva Kadegaonkar now I think maybe you weren't completely serious. Sorry for answering too honestly like a bot myself. ;-)

GAWEN STEASY I'am not worried.But, uptill now I thought I was playing against a 'human' user on this platform.So, this is much of a news to me (and perhaps I think to some other sololearners as well)

HonFu , It seems to me that the bot is in extensive training phase.

U and other players have to play game of five questions.. In that end either you win or learn. That's all! No worries.
