# the money test

the money test is something like the turing test, but better.

its a test you can set up, giving an ai agent free reign. all it needs to have is access to a way to make payments and receive charges. the ai passes the money test if after a given time it has 'made a living'. there's a daily churn and the ai needs (cost of living). if they ai does not earn enough, it will be shut down.

the concept is public domain, anyone can create their own way of doing the money test. however, at themoneytest.com i will provide useful boilerplate, tools, and resources on how to create one. we'll also build a leaderboard
