I would appreciate if you could recommend me a good book to understand the basic concepts of AI. <br />Thanks... nice postAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13029019784960407719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9275314.post-89662459048214424432016-01-19T16:02:00.959-05:002016-01-19T16:02:00.959-05:00I saw your post on Hacker News and I was excited j...I saw your post on Hacker News and I was excited just by reading the title, but then I read the content and I'm even MORE excited :D This is a field that I would love to research in more depth! I did a master in AI and my thesis was related with swarm intelligence: how by the intereaction of simple individuals can emerge complex systems. I think this field of videogames with swarm intelligence match quite well!! <br /><br /><b>Thank you for your post</b>, I'll read the references you mentioned :)<br /><br />BTW: if you have any PhD open position or a research position, please let me know!! :DKuuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398764739834784823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9275314.post-35071415660571726102016-01-19T04:35:05.898-05:002016-01-19T04:35:05.898-05:00"Your current game console probably suffers f..."Your current game console probably suffers from a lack of wooden panels", It does, it does...James Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15406228202795957399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9275314.post-64509677750040942272016-01-18T23:34:41.979-05:002016-01-18T23:34:41.979-05:00Nice post, another aspect of gaming that could pro...Nice post, another aspect of gaming that could propel development of AI is the possibility to interact with millions of humans in online games. Just imagine improvements on learning the spoken language and politics in a game such as EVE or even the ability for an AI to learn both leading squads or coordinating with human agents through text or even voice in games such as Battlefield. Maybe the general level of an AI would have to get to another level to be able to start doing this, but I highly doubt there would be a field outside of computer gaming where the interactions with humans is as diverse and the scale could be so large without having a need for a body and sensors to take in the "real world". Even the reality we perceive is only a reflection of the real deal limited by our mind, sensors and body, and so I definitely believe a more general thinking AI could be developed through the challenges gaming poses even though each game is simulating different kind of worlds of which many are not even trying to resemble the laws of nature we are stuck with.Kavehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05888328461796117926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9275314.post-67267271213593844472016-01-18T20:29:51.197-05:002016-01-18T20:29:51.197-05:00Excellent post!

It gives me strength to keep it up in this research direction, whatever incomprehensions and skepticism I have around me.<br /><br />There are many things I agree with in this post. I am also convinced games are excellent testbeds to find efficient AI techniques that can be relevant in other domains.<br /><br />However, I have great difficulties to convinced people around me: colleagues, reviewers, lab director, etc.<br /><br />I hope, and think, it is a matter of time though.
