Training an AI team at a shooter game - I don’t see any way how this could go wrong

[thomassynths]

I love how you are able to instill suspense when narrating AI results.

[MobyMotion]

Really exciting because of the sparse internal rewards and long term planning. A step towards AI agents that are useful in real life.

[eggory]

I was really hoping to see an AI that mastered bunny hopping and item control in standard duel mode.

[jasonjasonjasonjasonjason]

Karoly....I have something to admit. I'm not a scholar.

*cracks open a monster*

yep, quake was a good game

[diamondguy]

This is incredible work! These developments, for example AI developing its own definition of a reward, are exactly what are needed for more complex AI agents. I was thinking the other day about how rewards would be defined for complex AI problems, and realized that humans can use context to understand whether or not they are succeeding, and use this to determine the actions they need to take to do so. I am looking forward to what this research leads to!

[ziquaftynny]

This shit is progressing so quickly by the time I graduate we'll have a singularity before I can even work on it. Dammit hehe

[ermonski]

We need this as an official Quake III Arena mod

[Lugmillord]

This sounds like a big jump. It's all happening so fast, it's hard to believe. Good thing I found this channel. You just can't keep up with the speed of progress otherwise.

[TheDarkever]

Damn this is fucking amazing. With this level of genetic learning, the only obstacle to apply these concepts to real life (e.g. self-driving cars) seems to be just the "mapping" from our reality to "computer reality".

[PandoraMakesGames]

I love to see AI applied to games! You inspire me to make my own AI videos!

[nova_vista]

0:41 *Red ball at the bottom spinning in a circle* "AI has to learn general concepts"

[Minedodge]

Imagine walking by google headqarters, "This is our FTW!! section ..."

[markonfilms]

Amazing! FTW this stuff is advancing every week! Incredible. At this rate I won't be able to hold onto my papers anymore!

[SmashedHatProject]

I am excited to see studies on AIs training humans

[mitsuracer]

I want to see the actual gameplay. Also want to see a bot that can duel in Quake. I'm sure the accuracy would have to be artificially reduced of course or it would just be using 100% rail accuracy to destroy the human. I want to see how it strafe jumps though

[not_a_human_being]

the best channel ever!!! please do more practical stuff too! :)

[spankymebottom]

ty for the vid, I'm going to attempt reading the paper. really wish my school would teach this. this is a great opener for a machine learning course imo. just swap out the game for your first class project

[ermonski]

This needs to be a downloadable mod for Quake 3
