An artificially intelligent virtual gamer created by computer scientists at The University of Texas at Austin has won the BotPrize by convincing a panel of judges that it was more human-like than half the humans it competed against.
The competition was sponsored by 2K Games and was set inside the virtual world of "Unreal Tournament 2004," a first-person shooter video game. The winners were announced this month at the IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence and Games. "The idea is to evaluate how we can make game bots, which are nonplayer characters (NPCs) controlled by AI algorithms, appear as human as possible," said Risto Miikkulainen, professor of computer science in the College of Natural Sciences.
Miikkulainen created the bot, called the UT^2 game bot, with doctoral students Jacob Schrum and Igor Karpov. The bots face off in a tournament against one another and about an equal number of humans, with each player trying to score points by eliminating its opponents. League of Legends censuré en Chine - 02/10/2012. For composers, video games are the surreal land of opportunity. Sept. 28, 2012 | 5:00 a.m. A screenshot of Bethesda Softworks’ upcoming game “Dishonored,” which features a score from Daniel Licht.
(Bethesda Softworks) Ramin Djawadi always dreamed of composing a film score, and the Berklee College of Music graduate has done plenty, including 2008’s “Iron Man.” But this week saw the release of one of Djawadi’s most ambitious soundtracks to date — “Medal of Honor: Warfighter.” Not in a theater near you? That’s because “Warfighter” is not a movie, it’s a video game. “My goal was always to do music for movies,” Djawadi says. For a cadre of top composers, the action isn’t in film but video games. Yet it isn’t just musical freedom that has composers excited about the growth in video game music.
“I don’t do that many video games, but it’s becoming quite challenging in the film world,” says John Debney, an Emmy-nominated composer for “Hatfields & McCoys.” Composer Daniel Licht, who scored Bethesda Softworks’ “Dishonored.” Debney goes one step further. Did a Computer Bug Help Deep Blue Beat Kasparov? | Playbook. Chess Grand Master Garry Kasparov, left, comtemplates his next move against IBM’s Deep Blue chess computer while Chung-Jen Tan, manager of the Deep Blue project looks on during the first game of a six-game rematch between Kasparov and Deep Blue in this file photo from 1997. The computer program made history by becoming the first to beat a world chess champion, Kasparov, at a serious game.
Photo: Adam Nadel/Associated Press In May 1997, an IBM supercomputer known as Deep Blue beat then chess world champion Garry Kasparov, who had once bragged he would never lose to a machine. Kasparov and other chess masters blamed the defeat on a single move made by the IBM machine. Either at the end of the first game or the beginning of the second, depending on who’s telling the story, the computer made a sacrifice that seemed to hint at its long-term strategy. Fifteen years later, one of Big Blue’s designers says the move was the result of a bug in Deep Blue’s software.

Quand la "xénophobie vidéoludique" sublime le jeu vidéo. Ce que je préfère dans le jeu vidéo, c’est découvrir un nouveau genre vidéoludique. L’originalité et l’intensité d’une expérience vidéoludique dépend en grande partie de la naïveté du joueur vis à vis de l’oeuvre qu’il découvre. Par exemple, entamer son 70ème jeu de plate-forme sur son CV, fut-ce une merveille comme Super Meat Boy, n’aura jamais la même saveur que de découvrir pour la première fois Super Mario Bros, à l’âge de 6 ans.
Bondir de sa chaise à chaque saut du plombier moustachu est une sensation impossible à simuler vingt ans plus tard, le joueur n’ayant plus pour lui que la nostalgie de ces moments passés. A contrario, le joueur débutant, peu habitué à analyser rationnellement certains codes propres à un genre (level design, patterns, difficulté…), peut nourrir un complexe d’infériorité vis à vis d’un jeu, qui a vite fait ensite de se transformer en une subtile appréhension, qui relève d’autant plus le défi qu’il doit affronter.
