A Deep Learning Alternative Can Help AI Agents Gameplay the Real World

A new machine learning approach, Axiom, emulates the human brain for more efficient AI, mastering simple video games using fewer examples. Developed by Verse AI, it incorporates prior knowledge about object interactions and updates predictions through active inference. This differs from deep reinforcement learning, requiring less computation. Inspired by the free energy principle, Axiom could enhance AI agent learning. It offers a promising alternative to conventional neural networks, with applications in various fields.

DeepMind thinks its new Genie 3 world model presents a stepping stone toward AGI | TechCrunch

Google DeepMind has unveiled Genie 3, a new world model for training general-purpose AI agents, marking a step toward artificial general intelligence. Unlike its predecessor, Genie 2, it can generate real-time, interactive 3D environments, retaining consistency and understanding physics over time. While promising for educational, gaming, and training applications, the model still faces limitations, such as accurately modeling complex interactions and continuous interaction time. However, it represents progress in developing self-driven, embodied AI learning.

Google Deepmind trains a video game-playing AI to be your co-op companion

Google Deepmind researchers have developed an AI model called SIMA (scalable instructable multiworld agent) that can play multiple 3D games by learning from human gameplay videos and verbal instructions. The model associates visual representations of actions, objects, and interactions with certain instructions. Although AI agents trained on multiple games performed better on unfamiliar games, specific mechanics and terms unique to each game can still pose challenges. The researchers aim to create a more natural game-playing companion that can adapt and produce emergent behaviors. This approach differs from traditional simulator-based agent training, as SIMA uses imitation learning from human behavior instead of a reward signal.

New AI model can hallucinate a game of 1993’s Doom in real time

Google and Tel Aviv University researchers have developed GameNGen, an AI model that can simulate the 1993 game Doom in real-time using AI image generation techniques. The model, which functions as a limited game engine, has the potential to enable real-time video game synthesis by using AI to generate graphics on the spot. GameNGen can generate new frames of Doom gameplay at over 20 frames per second, and in tests, humans struggled to distinguish between the generated frames and actual gameplay footage. The model uses a modified version of Stable Diffusion 1.4 for image synthesis.
