>Did I say anything about software?
Well, you did say:
"Who'd like to sponsor? Or should I just spin up a GitHub repo for the code and a kickstarter for the prize money?"

What I'm confused about is what the argument is.
Is it we shouldn't try to find a solution?
I'm sorry if I was unclear that I did not intend to limit the scope of solutions to software, but frankly so what even if I had?
In any case the X-Prize proposal seems quite popular so I'd be happy to set it up, help someone else set it up or in general do anything I can to encourage innovative solutions of any kind, but..
...never tell me the odds.
You cannot setup a github repo for that.
