The winning bot in this year’s competition, ZZZKBot, was made by Chris Coxe, a software developer in Perth, Australia, who previously worked for NASDAQ. He built his bot alone, and lately took a break from work in part to dedicate more time to it. A day before the final results were announced, Coxe spoke self-deprecatingly of his handiwork. “It was supposed to be a proof of concept,” he said. “The source code isn’t all that great.”
