DeepMind and Blizzard to release StarCraft II as an AI research environment

http://ift.tt/2eCyw2b


At my university some people competed in the Student StarCraft AI Tournament, it was even a mandatory project on one of the AI courses. Some of them did it the old fashioned way of taking a screenshot, image recognition, decision of next action, simulating mouse click.

A friend even did his master thesis on implementing Cannon Rush strategy in StarCraft.

The tournament matches are livestreamed, which is fun. But of course they play only bot v bot, they couldn't top a good player.
