There will be video games to play with you, but not to win
The Goat Simulator 3 Game: Learning How to Play In Games That Don’t Have a Linear Path To End Its Playing Field
Simpson will eventually learn how to play any video game that doesn’t have a linear path to end the game. Though it’s not intended to replace existing game AI, think of it more as another player that meshes well with your party. It mixes language with 3D worlds and image recognition.
The games that were chosen were more focused on open play and learning general gaming skills. If you have watched or played the first part of the game, you would know that doing random, impromptu things is part of the game; Harley said it was this kind of spontaneity they hoped Simpson would learn.
Goat Simulator 3 is a surreal video game in which players take domesticated ungulates on a series of implausible adventures, sometimes involving jetpacks.
The next big leap in artificial intelligence might seem unlikely, but that is what DeepMind revealed this morning, an program capable of learning how to complete tasks in many games.
Expanding on the kind of data that can be learned from offers a path to more powerful capabilities for OpenAI and other companies competing to gain an edge.
