I'm pretty excited about this. I think some kids out there will really enjoy an environment like this to mess with, and maybe learn a thing or two about machine learning along the way.
Starcraft is a really fun game, and I think it's enough to engage kids a little more than something like Minecraft where there's plenty of room for some cool ML hacking, but not enough stimulation from it. Instead of just seeing blocks here or there or whatever, starcraft has hard goals that will force them to use critical thinking skills, their knowledge of the game, their own personal strategic insights, and the ML skills they accrue.
So exciting! Love the feature layer idea also, well done!
- pdimitar 10y agoI agree. SC2 is a very strategic game and has tons of potential for scouting, fake attacks, distractions, diversions and all sorts of deceitful play. And that's coming after having a good micro-management of units, using perfect timing for expanding your economy, upgrading your units, proxy offense, and a ton of other mechanics. DeepMind really chose well. SC2 has to be the most demanding game nowadays in terms of strategy and execution.
