They also released replays for all of AlphaStar's ladder matches. | ||

Deepmind doesn't need to make money; Deepmind is proving proof of concept to eventually replace thinking jobs. | ||

How do you people have such little foresight? Skynet isn't just fiction—it's also prophecy. Guys, they devoted 150 computers with 28 processing cores EACH to this project. Human brains cost less to operate. We'll be okay. | ||

I feel they could well run out of money very soon, unless they manage to find a commercial use for this type of research. Deepmind is funded by Google. Or rather, Alphabet, the parent company of Google. A couple hundred million is nothing. Deepmind may have lost $570 million last year, but the company as a whole turned a profit of $30 billion. Money is no object for them. The actual danger for Deepmind is Google deciding their little Starcraft experiment has taught them all it can about reinforcement learning, and that it's time to move on. | ||

AI is the single largest threat to humans surviving the next 100 years. Climate change could wipe us out but improved technology and consumer pressure will probably solve that. Nuclear war is still a threat but is unlikely to happen. But trying to control something that will be much more intelligent than us, I see no scenario where we will not be wiped out. | ||

Which seems to be the case. I've the feeling the result is good enough for their research and they will move to another project now. | ||

Don't think it is based on game state. From what I understood they have a simplified rendering of the view (like one image for the building, one for the enemies, etc. but it is based on pixels: | ||

not anymore, this version has a lot of limitations in APM and in screen information. | ||
