It’s going to get even creepier for you then. I’d be very surprised if a decade from now any human player has a chance of beating a state of the art AI player in pvp games.

Reminds me of this woz quote an associate and I say to each other on occasion when creepy AI comes up: "The future is scary and very bad for people" which we shorten to "The future is scary and very bad." :) https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2015/03/24/apple-co-founder-on-artificial-intelligence-the-future-is-scary-and-very-bad-for-people/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2015/03/24...

that's not creepy at all. there's many sports today where a machine specially built for that task would dominate any human from ever winning. a baseball "player" that can hit a homerun on every swing. or throw a 150mph fastball. a basketball "player" that can make every single shot. you dont even need to defend that well when youre shooting 99% a "golfer" that can get a hole on one in every hole emulating human movement and agility will keep a few more sports safe, but not for long. im just sitting here waiting for the robot olympics

  The first two, maybe, but there's no way we could build a golfing robot that gets a hole in one on every shot.

    In an indoor field it's totally possible. Standard golf is affected by weather, though.

    at the very least the machine will 1-putt from anywhere on the green

  More interesting would be humanoid robots that could win at these sports. The state of the art today is a long ways away from being able to compete in any of the listed sports. Baseball is probably closest because with sufficiently good pitching and hitting you could win, which would avoid the much more dynamic problems of fielding, running bases, etc.

  You are really underestimating the difficulty in making humanoid robots that actually work well. Sure we can make a basketball shooting machine with a high accuracy, but one that participate in a game, dribble, pass etc? Near impossible with today's technology.

    It just needs to be tall, move with some speed, and be able to receive passes from other players; essentially a easier to hit hoop that can annoy the opposing team by getting in the way. The requirement that it'd be humanoid is just an artificial restriction that reveals you are not really asking for the best basketball machine that can be made.

      It'll have to follow the rules of basketball, though, which were written for human players and refer frequently to 'hands', 'feet', 'steps', 'arms', 'legs', and so on.

state of the art AI has been unbeatable in FPS since the first aimbot was created.
