It may be cheating, and sort of against the point, but those recipes are stored as json files. Makes things a lot easier.

  It would be cheating. The contest rules [1] specifically rule out using domain knowledge. [1] https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/minerl/minerl-resources/blob/master/Rules.md https://gitlab.aicrowd.com/minerl/minerl-resources/blob/mast...

    The humans finding diamonds in 20 minutes are cheaters by that logic.
    • CrazyStat 7y ago
      Yes, a human competing in the AI challenge would be cheating.

        would it really be cheating? I mean if you get a competitive edge by utilizing complex logic, would it be fair ?
        • CrazyStat 7y ago
          Complex logic would almost certainly involve human domain knowledge which is disallowed.

          The resources the programs can use are well specified. A human child is not part of the specified equipment.

  Allowing access to the data changes the problem. It’s an interesting problem in its own right, but seems much easier to accomplish and arguably much less valuable than limiting input to images and output to mouse/keyboard. Teaching computers to interact with the world is the trick that we want to teach.

    That's my thinking as well. It's much more interesting to see how the AI copes with the world, rather than getting bogged down in OCR and other previously-solved problems.
