ability to run long CPU/GPU experiments
The real friction is usually not library usage. It is validation, time allocation, and task framing.
ARC-style tasks require generalization to novel reasoning patterns, not just fitting familiar training distributions. The competition uses custom evaluation, limited daily submissions, large runtime limits, and a strong research-heavy field.
