I'd love to see what strategies the bot decides on with different contraints such as max apm, playing different races, playing different maps too! | ||

At least I assume so. You can register 1300APM by holding down a rapid fire key! | ||

If anything people are not giving enough thought to the impact perfect micro(even with limited apm) will have on strategy. | ||

All you need is to make AlphaGo Terran, give it medivacs, stim, and the ability to micro each individual marine perfectly. Seriously it should be the easiest task ever. Just make it like open reaper expand every game, then it only has to counter some cheeses. Go does not have mechanics, Starcraft 2 does, and there the AI would be infinitely superior. The point is precisely NOT THAT. If it's about implementing an AI that will go for a perfectly micro-ed cheese everytime, well, the technology is already here  The point of "AlphaStar" is that there is no "making" involved. The system must learn by itself the importance of scouting, the usefulness of cheese and what have you, just like a human beginner would, if he only knew the goal (make the opponent leave the game or destroy every building) and had a huge database of replays to watch. The choice of interface that would be used is essential. A keyboard, mouse and screen set up (even virtual) means that the AI has to move the camera to issue commands, and is limited by the max mouse sensibility of the engine, which would effectively limit the APM count. There is also the question of how APM will be perceived by the system through its learning phase. We think of automaton2000 and its godlike APM, but a "self-taught" AI may very well end up playing with a relatively low APM. Or spam keystrokes just as much as the worst of human APM spammers. The questions that we (the starcraft community) ask about this AI are questions that DeepMind's people will have to think about, and make choices according to what they want their AI to do. Food for thoughts: given the "right" replays, it's entirely possible that "AlphaStar" might try to make the opponent leave by BMing in chat. The BM to end all BM, now wouldn't that be a funny sight? | ||

Yeah, it would make any worker rush situation where the attacker has more workers for a brief moment a reliable way to win | ||

Alphago played moves that no human would play, moves that shocked the Go community and made them question their knowledge of the game. What kind of BM would a super-AI come up with? Be afraid. | ||

That doesn't actually limit nearly as much as you would think | ||

Starcraft is so much more complex than Go it is absurd. Basically the amount of permutations in the first 3 minutes of Starcraft is larger then any match of Go. | ||

As someone who has played chess (no rank), Go (10 kyu) and Starcraft (platinum) at low amateur level I say you are wrong. At the strategic level Go is enormously more complex and deep than both chess and Starcraft. There is absolutely no comparison. Go completely dwarfs any game that I have come in contact with. Measuring complexity in "number of permutations" is not meaningful. How many permutations are there in a game of billiard? Do you think it would be hard for a computer? | ||
