Forward-Forward Algorithm is a new type of neural network training algorithm that's supposed to replace backpropagation. It was proposed by Geoffrey Hinton recently.

If at the end of 2023 there is at least one entry in the leaderboard that uses Forward-Forward Algorithm (FFA), market resolves "Yes". The entry doesn't have to use exclusively FFA, it can use a mix of FFA and backpropagation.

65% accuracy is low, this threshold is to prevent proof-of-concept entries that aren't competitive with backprop at all.

If an entry uses barely any FFA but technically qualifies, I'll ask for help in resolving the market.
