i really hope i will live to see an age of AI being used to make actual video game AI better. imagine strategy games where the computer does not play with cheats and with basic scripted logic but using actual AI.
Uh. It’s often dumb because simpler strategies are easier to implement.
Take poker for example. There are bots that play near perfect games (and have ruined online poker).
Most popular single player poker games don’t use good AI for the computer players. They just alter the odds when drawing cards and “advanced” opponents are just “luckier.” No strategy required, when the computer player is always dealt unbeatable hands.
So many games in every genre use similar tricks to simulate skilled gameplay. Whenever you can just change a knob and tweak chance, there’s no AI.
