Chapter 655 AI and Artificial Intelligence
Jester's words made the person who was slightly disappointed before excited again.
Even made them happier.
Although these experiences discussed by Jester are very useful to them, after all, you can ask some questions you care about and just listen to what others say, but you will not be able to hear the questions you want to know the most, the most confused, and the most urgent thing you want to know the answer.
After Jester finished speaking, dozens of arms were raised in an instant, and Jester didn't choose much. He pointed casually and said, "Just just the girl with glasses."
The girl with long brown hair whose name was pointed was a little surprised. She didn't expect that she would choose herself among so many people.
Of course, she didn't just follow the crowd and raise her hands casually
She really wants to ask questions.
Moreover, the questions she asked were very skillful, which made Jester's eyes lit up. He did not expect these students to ask such in-depth questions. The girl with long brown hair didn't think much. When she stood up, she asked her own question: "Mr. Li, I really want to ask about AI or artificial intelligence..."
Many people want to know this problem clearly.
After the girl with long brown hair asked, Jester saw many people's faces showing excitement and expectation intertwined. Obviously, they were also interested in how they would answer this question.
"hehe."
Jester smiled first. Of course, it is impossible to answer such questions that he had not prepared in advance. He also needs a process of thinking, but this time does not require a lot. After all, these are things he often encounters when developing various games.
"This question..." Jester pondered for a moment, and then continued: "This question is very interesting, but if you want to let go of what you say, this is a very big problem. You can give another lecture. However, I can say one thing, maybe it is not comprehensive, I hope everyone will forgive me." Jester said modestly.
Then, he began to explain.
"In fact, ai's design is the most closely related to psychology in the entire game design and the most popular field of psychology theory. Why? It's very simple, because in our design, ai represents the enemy of the player."
"Players in conflict environments will especially project a lot of personal feelings to Ai. There are several philosophies about Ai design. I personally think that Ai is an important factor in creating an overall ** environment for players, especially in stand-alone games. Ai is a tool for creating a realistic game experience. Another view is that Ai should imitate another player as much as possible and should reflect the personality characteristics of human players. I personally do not agree with the latter view. There are several factors that make me stay away from this view."
When Jester said this, many people showed a look of incomprehension on their faces, because based on their understanding, it seems that the understanding of Ai mentioned before was not wrong. At least theoretically and logically, it is all right.
"hehe."
Jester smiled. He obviously saw many people's discomfort.
This kind of incomprehension is normal, because he also understood Ai in the beginning, but in fact, when designing the game, at least in his sense, it seems that the game Ai is not the case.
However, Jester did not say death.
"In fact, I don't think this view is absolutely wrong, but according to my experience, one of the purposes of letting AI obtain human personality traits is to surprise players. Therefore, AI should be designed with wise plans, but there is only a thin line between stupidity and cleverness, and most players will take it for granted that AI is stupid. Therefore, if AI really uses a trick, players will definitely think AI cheated and peek at its layout through the background."
Jester laughed, and many listeners laughed as he heard that.
This is indeed the experience they have ever had.
"So once the performance of AI breaks through the rules, it will have a negative impact on the player's psychology. My idea of designing AI is to provide players with solid competition and at the same time make players feel that they have made progress. Players should think AI can be predicted to a certain extent. Although the playing style is stable, it is not very clever. The real tricks come from the players." Jester continued with a smile.
After Jester answered this question, the audience burst into applause.
"Whoever has any questions can continue to ask questions."
Jester waved his hand and signaled that there was no need to do so, and the time was not long, so it would be better for him to ask questions as soon as possible if he had any questions.
Then Jester seemed to remember something again. Taking advantage of this, no one raised his hand, Jester added a previous answer to Ai: "In fact, another function of Ai is to provide feedback when players talk to other civilization rulers in the game. Feedback is very important for stand-alone games, because these AI can be said to be your only friend in the game. According to our observations, the more the AI characters in the "Civilization" game express their attitude and react to the player's behavior, the more the players feel that they have understood. They are not playing the game, but experiencing a world..."
As he said that, Jester saw many more people raising their hands.
So he called out again, this was a boy, and from the accent, he should be a British, with a very authentic London accent.
"My question is related to the self-destruct principle you mentioned before. I'm not very clear. Can you tell me in detail?" The boy with a London accent was not loud and a little shy, but Jester nodded after hearing this question.
He said, "It is normal to ask if you don't understand."
From the expressions on many people's faces, Jester can see that it seems that not many people are interested in this issue. He doesn't know whether it is because the question itself is not attractive, or whether what he said is boring and has no way to make people interested.
However, after thinking for a while, Jester began to answer this question.
