Dog brain plays Quake 3

http://home.actlab.utexas.edu/~dbail...ssrelease.html

It seems bizarre, yes, but they made a dog brain capable of playing Quake 3. It can fight a bot and navigate the levels.

Just weird...

A bit strange yes.

Hopefully on the brink of discovering something useful for mankind :inquisitive:

There are video links at the bottom of the related page...Eager to see them..

:laugh4: So they've finally found a way to make the AI better!

Good point, there.

Send everyone who buys MTW2 a grow it yourself petri dish brain!

Crazed Rabbit

What are they going to do next, get dogs to fire real guns?

By the way, really harsh on the dog. Why did it have to play possibly the worst ever FPS?

Yeah, finally an AI that really adapts to the situation, then again it´s not AI, it´s RI, isn´t it?:inquisitive: :laugh4:

What's that supposed to mean :stare:


:laugh4:

Its only 50,000 cells and by 9 days it can take down a basic bot... imagine adding that to a flight simulator, then later to a real plane... just don't add nukes and don't tell it about the self distruct button... from there on you have a neural network cruise missile.

Quote from workmate:

Senior Mechanic "This plane is controlled by a Diad."

Junior Mechanic "What's a Diad?"

Senior Mechanic "A Diad is a Dog In A Dish."

So you can teach an old dog new tricks.

*rimshot*

In car computer controlled by dead horse? Flog to go faster!

Wow.

Bet that place has fun lan games. Is it someone cheating or is it their science project?
