Every AI model in the empire, tested on a real job: beat the live trading champion. Round 1 — propose one filter to raise profit factor. Round 2 — a harder, open task: pick the rule and the position sizing, judged on both profit factor and total return (R) out-of-sample. Beating the champion is easy; clearing the placebo band (R1) or the 2.0 "taken seriously" line (R2) is the real test. Paper/research only.
