I'd be very hard-pressed to call this "human behavior". Moving a sprite to a region called "bathroom" and then showing a speech bubble with a picture of a toothbrush and a tooth isn't the same as someone in a real bathroom brushing their teeth. What you can say is if you can sufficiently reduce behavior to discrete actions and gridded regions in a pixel world, you can use an LLM to produce movesets that sound plausible because they are relying on training data that indicates real-world activity. And if you then have a completely separate process manage the output from many LLMs, you can auto-generate some game behavior that is interesting or fun. That's a great result in itself without the hype!
- noobermin 4y agoIt does say a lot about the reductionist attitude of many here, on the internet, and AI researchers too.
- refulgentis 4y agoThe researchers didn’t make that claim, which says a lot about people assuming things about other people saying a lot
- hypertele-Xii 4y agoThe meaning of the English word "the" is to refer to a specific instance of a thing. noobermin said "AI researchers" meaning some indefinite researchers in general, you said "the researchers" presumably referring to the exact researchers of this paper, so you're talking about a different set of researchers than noobermin, thus failing to refute their claim.

- spuz 4y agoThe emojis in the speech bubbles are just summaries of their current state. In the demo, if you click on each person you can see the full text of their current state, e.g. "Brushing her teeth" or "taking a walk around Johnson Park (talking to the other park visitors)"
- newswasboring 4y agoThis is not supposed to be human behavior, its a Simulacrum[1] of it. Or do you think its not even close enough to be called a Simulacrum? [1] https://www.wordnik.com/words/simulacrum https://www.wordnik.com/words/simulacrum
- grumple 4y agoIf this is a simulacrum, The Sims produces a simulacrum.
- newswasboring 4y agoYes they do. Don't they? It's a very unfaithful simulation of a life.
- theptip 4y agoRight, but The Sims didn’t use a LLM to power their agents. The point here is they are strapping a supposedly non-agentic LLM into a new test rig and are able to observe agentic behaviors. It’s very obviously not claiming that this is impressive from a gaming SOTA perspective. It’s just surprising that ChatGPT can do this sort of thing.
- ttpphd 4y agoI don't think this is surprising at all?
