Jesus christ the amount of people here who don’t realise that AI is a term since the begining of video gaming used to describe the processes behind NPC behaviour is disgusting…
Hey. That was entertaining.
It actually was! Some crazy energy that guy has.
Oh he is crazy alright. Just look at his videos making guitar hero… USING GUITAR!
How is that programmer humor of all things and how does that need ai?
Well it’s comedy (even if you don’t agree, thats what he’s going for).
And ai is commonly used as a catchall term for any program doing some kind of automation.
Using Ai in the old sense and not LLM.
What’s the old sense? A program? “AI” didn’t exist in the old days and it doesn’t exist now.
The logic here is like 3 lines of code maybe? The ubiquity of “AI” grifting has made language meaningless.
The term is probably older than you.
Yeah, AI was totally never used to describe the logic behind NPC actions as far back as the Atari days.
“AI” has existed since the 70s in terms of computing. In terms of the theory, much further back.
It was actually the 50s, commonly attributed to John McCarthy.
Crazy its been around almost a century at this point
In the sense that the enemies in the first Doom had “AI”.
Yea, they used AI for better reasons before
I really dislike his strange need to pollute the leaderboards with his bot records. The blacklist is there because people like him…
There is even a dedicated version of this site FOR bots.
Is it really “pollution” though if their anti-bot system worked exactly as intended and restored the leaderboard to its previous state within mere seconds?
It didn’t work, but as I said, he really wanted to pollute it.
This is not AI, just simple logic. This is how it should be done, and not with “AI”. I hope young coders don’t confuse logic with machine learning.
“AI” has been a very common and very old term used in video games to refer to NPCs that react to player behaviour. It’s also sometimes used to refer to bots that emulate player logic to play a game, such as in this CB video.
If you missed that much and yet still know about machine learning: welcome back to society!
Oh boy, you have a lot to learn about what Artificial Intelligence actually means for people who have been in academia or gamedev for the past 20 years.
So 3 lines of code is enough “intelligence” for you? I can see how that definition might have been popular among grifters in like the 1930s.
Just break it down logically,
Would you consider something capable of playing minesweeper intelligent? (ie do you think it has a higher level of understanding than pure random chance?)
Do you consider software running on a manufactured silicon chip natural or artificial?
Literally yes. Thermostat (yes, the thing that turns your heater on if temperature is lower than XX) is considered an inteligent agent in the field of artifical inteligence.
The fact that you have a bunch of techbros who have no idea about what the field is about and are hyping the words because they sound cool changes nothing about it being a regular established academic field.
AI in the computation sense can refer to any system that appears intelligent. This includes simple logic. It seems to be you that is confusing AI with Machine Learning.
No it can’t. It seems to be you that is confusing idiot speak with English.

This is a garbage, subjective, pseudo-scientific definition.
And even if I entertain this nonsense, what kind of fool thinks that a minesweeper solver is “intelligent”?
Sorry random internet person let me forward your opinion to my old Computer Science professor and have them update it.
AI as a field goes back to the 50s, long before any concept of machine learning, or what ‘intelligence’ was possible for a computer to achieve.
Please do and report back. There’s a significant difference between following manually coded instructions and ‘intelligence’.
I gotta ask, would you consider humans intelligent?
I mean the entire scientific method depends on the deterministic nature of the universe, arguably making everything ever to follow manually coded instructions.
Nope, thermostat (yes, that thing that has one "if temperature < XX, turn on heater) is literally considered an intelligent agent, as defined by the actual field of Artificial Intelligence, it’s one of the first examples taught on the most basic of courses.
You should really go do your homework about absolute basics of AI field before insulting random people that at least have a semblance of knowledge about the field, other than “AI hype, AI cool”.
People like you are insulting the whole field of Artificial Inteligence, so please stop spreading bullshit about it before you get good (or at the very least, don’t be a dick about it, when people try to educate you). You probably had no idea the field even exists two years ago.
