Machine Learns How to Play Pitfall On Its Own

Thanks to a curious game glitch, I once beat an unbeatable boss, but then the game immediately froze and crashed...MaxTheReaper said:
...wait, is that why when you do go, you plan to take the whole multi-verse with you?

Anyway, robot intelligence seems to be trial and error right now, so unless the programming is seriously upgraded, I would say that a trial and error method would give us a good warning of attempts to take over.

you're kidding. i watched every episode of it on sci-fi they did a new series and it rocked, you should see it and pull your head out of your ass and not say that im a liar.randommaster said:

heres the website, the series ended already but you could probably watch it on the website or get the series on dvd
And it possibly showed emotion by doing a victory dance type thing.Vriggchan said:
If it learns to play WoW, it could evolve rapidly. It already seems to be learning as if it were a curious infant.

The thing is, it learned.
It learned that falling in the pit kept it from reaching the end. It learned to jump the pit and the log. What if it tried to play WoW? It would learn, and as it learned, it would become more complex. As it became more complex, it would gain a sense of the world around it. It would emerge from trial and error, it would understand.

Actually, I am kidding.No need to worry about me being a conspiracy nut, just a regular nut.brodie21 said:
You didn't read the article in question, did you? Nor do you seem to have any understanding of artificial intelligence. It would be rather easy (by comparison to what they have already accomplished) to get this program from its current state to a program that can effectively beat call of Duty 4 for example.D4zZ said:
Many of you seem to be comparing this AI to something like a bot from Quake 3. Bots in Quake 3 use a series of pre-defined actions and reads a set of pre-defined variables from the game in which to base its decisions on. The AI in question is first of all not in any way integrated into the game's code, and it does not use a set of pre-programmed actions.
The program reads and interprets what responses are given out by the game and makes decisions based on those observations. As the AI explores the space it creates a sort of map of what it has seen or "felt". For each frame a sort of status report was sent by the game to the learning module of the program and the next course of action was sent back before the emulator moved on to the next frame.
The AI was able to beat the first segment of pitfall without having seen it before. It's like someone who hasn't even seen a game console in their entire life beating the first stage of Tetris with only a few tries.
I don't buy the happy dance thing, an AI shouldn't learn that unless it was mimicking a human player. I'm not saying it's fake, I think this was it having been shown what to do or a bug.
That was possibly the most grim and terrifying victory dance I've ever seen. Haunting, even.
Now once this program teaches itself to use the Internet, it'll upload itself to Project Natal when it launches, integrate with Milo, and BAM! SkyNET. But with more victory dances.
I see no other possible outcome.
