DARPA seeks game players to join bug-hunt
DARPA, which last week launched a multi-million-dollar bug hunt, is also trying out the notion of using games to help track down bugs in commercial software. However, while last week's bounty is targeting hackers, the Crowd Sourced Formal Verification project is hoping to use mug punters to find bugs in commercial-style …

Oh Please, get Real. Advanced IntelAIgents don't do fishing with Global Operating Devices
DARPA is just fishing for exploits for NSA..... fortran Posted Monday 9th December 2013 04:05 GMT
DARPA, which is a sort of qubit of the DOD machine and IT and its MISTeams is more than just phishing with phorms that exploit NSA and intelligence services. Here it and IT be offering delivery of future virtual reality partners which/who supply perception of such product being indistinguishable from, and therefore fully mindlessly/autonomously accepted by clients and customers/the worldly wise wider general population as being the real thing via AI and Great Game Gaming platforms.

This reminds me of something...
I wonder if I could play these games during one of my interminable meetings (working on a defense contract for DARPA) and then send them an invoice for my "consultancy and code analysis".
Remember the Manhacks from Half Life 2? I seem to recall reading in a developer's commentary somewhere that the original idea was to have them guided in part by civilians playing games in the "Manhack Arcades" across the city. They thought they were playing a state-of-the-art FPS, when in reality they were unknowingly hunting down and killing their neighbours.
If these games are successful, I can see DARPA developing a whole new series of games:
Dude, where's my IP? - a Where's Wally/Waldo style game that involves deep packet inspection for copyrighted content.
3dom Defender - a tower-defense style game which involves identifying "undesirables" via remote sensor and CCTV as they wind their way to your borders.
Stop the Suspicious, Swarthy Stranger - a Papers, Please (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papers,_Please) style game where you help The Intelligence Agency mine and correlate data on persons of interest.

Re: This reminds me of something
Hi, ammabamma,
Some would advise that DARPA are just major league bit players in Greater IntelAIgent GCHQ Games with Global Operating Devices and Advanced Information Phormations, the FuturistICQ System Platform Driver ........ Cryptic Source Supply for Cascading Story Sheets ..... Novel NEUKlearer HypeRadioProActive IT Tales of Virtually Real Fiction that seamlessly deliver Beta Brighter Bigger Pictures for APT Apps and ACTive Realities Perceived to be Conceived on Earth rather than from Secure Anonymous Places in Cyber Space Systems Admin.
And the only barrier and/or hurdle to their leading in the field is their continued ploughing of barren furrows in sub-prime landscapes with terrorising petrified memes for they be not excluded from greener pastures where all are welcome to succeed and exceed.
