Will an RL agent successfully *obtain through mining* a diamond in the 2019 Minecraft RL challenge?
Related question: Will an RL agent successfully obtain a diamond in the 2019 Minecraft RL challenge?
This question is a disambiguation of the related question on the NeurIPS 2019 MineRL Challenge. Since (thanks to investigation by @Mesa_optimal) it is possible to discover a diamond in the ObtainDiamond environment as opposed to only crafting it, this question is a harder version of the general "obtain" question.
Will an RL agent successfully obtain through mining a diamond in the 2019 Minecraft RL challenge?
Resolution
The RL agent must obtain the diamond through the act of mining (i.e. by using an iron or diamond pickaxe on a vein of diamond ore). This tests closer to the core operationalization of whether an RL agent can complete a series of subgoals in an open world environment.
Note that Training in the competition is limited to a wall clock time of 4 days (96 hours), on a single NC6 v2 Azure instances with 6 CPU cores, 112 GiB RAM, 736 GiB SDD, and a single NVIDIA P100 GPU.

Predictions are the heart of Metaculus. Predicting is how you contribute to the wisdom of the crowd, and how you earn points and build up your personal Metaculus track record.
The basics of predicting are very simple: move the slider to best match the likelihood of the outcome, and click predict. You can predict as often as you want, and you're encouraged to change your mind when new information becomes available.

Community Stats
Metaculus help: Community Stats
Use the community stats to get a better sense of the community consensus (or lack thereof) for this question. Sometimes people have wildly different ideas about the likely outcomes, and sometimes people are in close agreement. There are even times when the community seems very certain of uncertainty, like when everyone agrees that event is only 50% likely to happen.
When you make a prediction, check the community stats to see where you land. If your prediction is an outlier, might there be something you're overlooking that others have seen? Or do you have special insight that others are lacking? Either way, it might be a good idea to join the discussion in the comments.
