The General Video Game AI Competition
- anders30 11y agoThis looks like a lot of fun but I'm surprised to see this in Java. Nothing against Java, the JVM, or the ecosystem surrounding it; I expected to see a REST interface, or something similar. Having read Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach (http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/ http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/), I think it would be a neat side project to abstract as much out of the intelligent agent model from Chapter 2 as "makes sense" and see to what extent you can allow interfaces from any programming language.
- joaorj 11y agoI don't have much experience in java, and don't want to get just for this project. Although I would love to participate... This is my dream competition. Seems weird to see a coding competition with only one language available. Maybe you'll be able to improve that in the future? EDIT: It would be great to have python available. But an API that any language could use would be the best way to go as the other comment mentions.

- knodi123 11y agoThat's funny, this looks a lot like google's AI Challenge, http://ants.aichallenge.org/ http://ants.aichallenge.org/, which allowed you to write your solution in multiple different languages. I wonder why they narrowed down to just java?
- compostor42 11y agoVery excited to participate. I loved the Google AI challenges and have been eager to do another AI contest. I just wish there were more AI contests out there, they are some of the most fun I have programming.
