Lichess engine vs Chess.com engine

Who would win? Can we organize an event to broadcast the duel?

lol there's no specific "Lichess engine" or "chesscom engine". They both use versions of stockfish

Who would win?
Most of the time: draw. Sometimes, either side would win. As mentioned in #2, it is stockfish vs. stockfish, both engines restricted to varying degrees.

Can we organize an event to broadcast the duel?
Yeah. Perhaps you could set a game against each other, one on chess.com play against computer and one on lichess play vs. AI. Then it is copy-paste moves made by engine (normally cheating, but currently permitted by both sites) on each board, and the game on Lichess can be shared.

For example:

The game in which lichess AI played black was prematurely ended by stalemate to prevent a dead-drawn endgame from being dragged to move 160.

I believe the deciding factor is how much processing resources the sites allocate at the highest level of AI / cloud analysis. Lichess, being a non-profit looking into upgrading its legal status to full public accountability, probably just does whatever seems a reasonable share of donations to dedicate. Chess.com, as a for-profit, probably does the least amount necessary so as not to be perceived as inferior to Lichess. They probably could do much more, but that might not please shareholders nor even be the best bang-for-the-buck for impressing the public (as compared to prize tournaments, etc.).

Clever, this is just a variation of the chess.com vs Lichess thread, I am not getting sucked into this again bro

It's a rabbit hole I just got out of.
