Programmers Fail to Create Bot that can Fool Humans

Reibooi - 79 days 18 hours ago

From what I have seen with bots in games they act far to sporadic to be confused for human. And sometimes they will make retarded choices like running into a wall for 10 seconds.

That that won't be reached any time soon. Creating a life like AI (even for actions in a video game) requires something beyond basic programming. It actually needs to learn. And to actually learn, it needs a lot of power and storage, and to have that, you basically need the fastest and largest things possible. Computer Science professors will say "It's impossible" and I think it is. You may be able to get close to it, but it's impossible to make an AI that constantly learns and grows.

Trust me we are not even close to 99% even in 20-30 years I doubt we'll even be close to that.

A human does so many mistakes, it turns around despite turning around a few seconds ago, it doesn't shoot when it can it waits...

Well yes, it's the whole AI-picking-the-pencil-up-from- a-table thing...simple things to many of us, can prove to be the hardest to achieve with AI.

mrv321 - 20-30 years is a long time. I think we'll have pretty convincing bots sooner than that. Clever strategy is difficult to program, and a real-world Terminator is a *long* way off... but for the restricted problem of a particular game, it's manageable. Chess was supposed to be beyond a computer's capabilities, too... but no longer.

(Note, I'm talking specially-written bots that run on a separate machine. It'll be a *long* time before the bots that come with games and run on the same machine or console will be convincing... because developers will always prioritize other things like graphics first.)

I understand fully that 20-30 is a long way off but you fail to understand how hard it is to be random, stupid and awsome.

Bots are good for being average, mainly because they are mostly the same but it's hard to program the skill and also the stupid side of people online etc. Those two extremes are hard to do and almost pointless.

But this is more about an illusion...so why not make the bot crouch (can't remember if you can crouch in 2k4) jump now and then, give it some lines to say and make it so it will stand around for a wee while at times?

LMAO...

My take on this is that the game's AI must be modeled after a female. This is the only way to explain the sporadic behavior.

Anyone of you actually played Too Human?

Anyway, I thought Unreal Tournament 3's bots were pretty smart. It felt like I was playing with actual people.

No I haven't play Too Human before. I know people say the game is bad, but that's not what I find funny. It's the name "Too Human" and the fact that being like a human is what A.I. is supposed to do but is failing in this case. I just find that ironic and funny.

They wait until the bots start running off enough players to actually take a big hit out of the game sales...
