AI question (AIs made in lua) Lua AI's aren't true AI's, are they? They're all replicated, so put under certain circumstances twice, they would act the same way? y-y-you too...

There's no such thing as a "true" AI. At least not currently.

No, I just meant that they would act the same way if the same thing happened twice. y-y-you too...

That depends entirely on how you design your AI.

Actually, if the same thing happened twice with the same randomness, same inputs, same variables, yeah it would happen the same way. That is true of ANY language, unless your computer is broken.

ALright, so without getting THAT technical, it's basically not a true AI up to the current generation of gaming's standards of npc's and AI's, right? y-y-you too...

Pinball boy is watson not considered AI?

@Check, Other than being more powerful than MOST computers, why would he be? Most computers can beat most humans at chess, being better than all humans doesn't make him a true AI. The singularity must be reached for that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity

The way watson thinks is not binary.

"use thrusecodelua" You say that as if a combined Lua and ThruseCode is better than just ThruseCode. Okay, we can use ThruseCodeLua, if ThruseCode isn't good enough to run without it.

The real question to ask here is: If you were to put an "intelligent" being(a human) in the same exact circumstance, not a single atom out of place, would THEY still make the same decision? All environmental factors are the same, and brains aren't random in the slightest. Thus, we must first derive an actual valid criteria for what is considered an AI to actually determine if it exists yet.

doesnt watson just use a smart search engine technique to get its results

what we currently have is called Weak AI, meaning that it's a form of AI that can perform a limited range of types of tasks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_AI

"Watson had access to 200 million pages of structured and unstructured content consuming four terabytes of disk storage[8] including the full text of Wikipedia,[9] but was not connected to the Internet during the game.[10][11] For each clue, Watson's three most probable responses were displayed on the television screen. Watson consistently outperformed its human opponents on the game's signaling device, but had trouble in a few categories, notably those having short clues containing only a few words." Watson is just a search engine, in the same manner Chrome is

wat usually when a breakthrough in AI happens, it's not AI anymore. Usually every new advance in computer science was made in an AI lab. According to this rule, no AI is true AI. Most game AI's are basically fancy finite-state-machines.

@WolfgangVonPrinz uh yeah, chrome isn't a search engine, it's a web browser

If put under certain circumstances twice humans would act the same way too unless something changed between the two times that makes them act different. For humans, it's the fact that they've done it before and can learn. Computers can do that too but most Lua AI's like people would code here don't do that.
