An AI which can learn any game from "looking" at a screen is a very ambitious goal. I doubt it is achievable in the near term. Humans can do it because of years of learning about the world. Personally, I prefer the more modest and achievable goal of teaching an AI to play complex real-time games such as Starcraft, LoL, and Dota--especially the latter 2 since they are team games.

OpenAI is a blue sky research project set up by billionaires with the goal of improving all of mankind. I hope I'm not being too uncharitable when I say that your comment reminds me of those who scorned the Apollo program for its ambition.
- BaronSamedi 10y agoI support research in AI of all kinds, however, its history is one of vastly over-promising and under-delivering. Modest but demonstrable progress is better, in my view, than yet more hype.
