Yeah it sucks that this type of content is going to take forever to record and edit no matter what.

the funny thing is, the ones who ignored it seemed more successful than the ones who took the intended route

It's pretty interesting how similar they are to people

up was good after all...

It's not. Minor differences between the game and remake would snowball really quickly. I highly doubt he can get past first few screens.

or find what is the fastest time to speed run

Probably not. See things like the glitched jump at 26:00

So why can’t he make an AI to play the original jump king?

@@justonefra Is that an impossible jump in the actual game? I see him bonking the wall a bit but jumping straight up while the wind is blowing should let you get up that way shouldn't it?

@@linnickschlanter4712 It is possible and is actually used as a speedrun strat I believe

@@linnickschlanter4712 Just checked and yes, it's possible in the original.

It's actually an evolutionary algorithm, even more interesting.

@@mattiabilla it's an evolutionary algorithm that narrows down the final path by brute forcing many options until a generation succeeds better than the previous. Its an ai that doesn't learn how to play the game, only which random moves get it further. The ai isn't learning things like, what jump patters it can know, where the map exits are, efficient routing, it doesn't actually learn how to play the game. It's just brute forcing every possible option until you get the combination that gets to the end of the game. Which results in the hard parts being done perfectly, and the easy parts being done like a 2 year old. The best way to say it is. This type of AI does not learn to play games. It learns to beat them through brute force.

​@@coreyfrank506 well, we can say that the model has a high variance, however all the AI algorithms aim to find the optimal solution by moving through the feasible region according to a strategy, in this case optimizing a fitness function with a GA. Brute forcing is just an inefficient and different strategy.

"I am on top of a mountain, and I have no idea how I got here" -some ai probably

World War Z

@don't be surprised Yup...finally the bot invasion is here...

popcorn

I mean, thats exactly what hes doing. Im not sure this could be considered AI, its more like "brute force" because its trying every possible sequence of jumps until it finds the winning sequence of jumps

@@Kevdama1 Yeah if it went through however many generations for the final one to be able to complete the whole game then you'd have an AI that learned jump king. I just don't think we're there yet so just stitching together the one successful run of each stage of the game is the best you can do. Jump king just seems like an odd game to do it with because the entire point of it is having to do everything perfectly or else face huge setbacks, yet the AI in this case just repeats the same stage over and over until it makes it past.

the AI takes "If at first you don't succeed, _try, try again"_ to inhuman levels.

@@sticks7857 probably could make a perfectly optimal, or near perfect run, the AI would probably need to be much more complex and train for much longer, I think this method cuts down on the raw processing power required

Isn't that how you play the game 😂

intreese's puffs

yeah he way overfit the data

Hahaha but i think that the overfit also is the joke here

Or perhaps 2 separate Explorer and Exploiter subpopulations, each going for novelty or performance respectively, with members that surprisingly perform well in the other category's metric cloned to that category

In reinforcement learning this is what is called "exploration and exploitation". Maybe that could be done by changing the mutation rate of the evolutionary algorithm using the Robbins-Monro algorithm.

Thanks for the explanation

Happens in halo infinite as well if I remember correctly, lot of speed runners use it to OOB

9:41 it moved so fast that the next frame was drawn out of the supposed colission line right? 3:08 the collision line was inside the character during the refresh...?

@@boingboingresearcherph.d.2871 It did, the whole player was suddenly at the other side of the line so no collision happened. And the collision line was inside because at first he didn't code the behavior to snap back. Many games snap back based on direction so if you change direction at the exact same frame you snap back inside the collision, this is used to clip through walls on the Super Mario from the NES. On SM64 I don't know the whole thing, but i would guess it was similar, though in that game i would say it's near impossible to turn on the same frame and it calculates the collision on four steps from the previous to the new position so you would have to be a lot faster, TAS runs manage it due to weird glitches that allow them to go several thousand times normal speed.

Nice explanation, thank you

It was built differently

It shows that off in the final run too!

@@misterree yes because that path was chosen, since the fluke completion of it got it to the next room

It's hypotonic

Each level is so different that treating each level case by case is probably more efficient than deep learning

@@amaurysaint-cast7039 makes sense, but it appears as though the AI can't "see" anything except the altitude value. In previous videos he's included entire vision systems of ray casting for vision, but here he just seems to send it blind

@@amaurysaint-cast7039 isn't that the way human also solves it ?

@@monad_tcp Not exactly. While people can only see one level at a time too, people can apply jump mechanics learned in previous levels to the later ones. People are capable of seeing the whole map and understanding "I need a big jump on this distance but a small one on that." Meanwhile, the AI in this case is running pretty much entirely blind. The only thing the ai sees is it's height and the "incentive coin" that was placed to show the AI hey go down to complete the level. Essentially, the ai is brute force jumping around until it hits the right answer where a person can actually plan a route and set of jumps.

@@NerdyGirlTay so that's why I wasn't able to beat platform games. Damn, I Am an AI and touch my behavior was human so all humans were playing like that.

Me 2 years into my degree: Why in all hell is this a popular opinion?

Why reinvent the wheel when there are so many open source wheels available, right?

@@michaelmoore2679 Frameworks that have (hopefully) been tested and had engineering methodologies utilized in their creation? Sure! Random code snippets from stack overflow? Absolutely not.

I think we just call those TAS lol This AI is just running a set of input instructions for each bot, what stops someone from just hardcoding inputs?

@@SwingRipper the game could have randomness so that hardcoding wont work.

@@SwingRipper a TAS is a tool that allows people to do things frame by frame and then record those inputs and play them back, there's still a player that knows all of the strategies and movements i guess my idea boils down to one of those marble race videos where it's pretty much random but it's fun to look at and root for your favourite colour

You'd have to make the game almost impossible for humans to be difficult enough for computers to compete.

Nah I don’t think it will be that much different between AIs. At least in a game like Jump King. The devs would just have to make thousands upon thousands of gens to have the most optimized run possible and the runs will ultimately be the same no matter which ai is playing. However, having devs compete in a limited time-frame to code the most successful ai would be very interesting since some of them would definitely try unique finnicky ai learning methods instead of just the rinse-and-repeat used here ...

yeah it takes him a while he didn't make a single video throughout the whole of 2021

Every developer has also lost 3 days 8 months later trying to fix it :D

E‎

Gotta love tech debt.

@@CrystalStearOfTheCas suspiciously specific

​@@daniellima4391 nah, he explained why it's so specific. Cause ever developer does it

It doesn't need a more complex reward, it just needs more input data then just score. (it's own x,y location and information about the map)

It's starting from square one because he's not building a robot that knows how to beat this game. He's building 44 robots that know how to beat one level. I doubt he is even syncing them into one fluid action... There is no truth about how to beat the game based on platform distance. It just is 44 separate recordings of random inputs. Pretty lame imo. I'd enjoy it but I wouldn't upload it. Have fun CB

@@littlegandhi1199 homeslice the chance of beating jump king with just random inputs is nearly impossible even on a per level basis you can clearly see they prioritise going up rather than just randomly jumping around

@@Polareon They randomly send inputs and are rewarded when they go up. They have ZERO brainpower.

Wouldn't "next screen" be the better reward? Like "If x moves fail, increase move count untill success" and just have it add more iterations for vertical height as well to brute force past the height limitation and/or remove iteration numbers at all and/or write some pathfinding code.

That asterisk is very needed. Functional*, not functional.

@@unma5253 I'm not a coder so what does the asterisk mean

@@freetousebyjtc That the program does what is asked of it, but if you look at the code and how it does the task, it's full of band-aid fixes, failed shortcuts that took longer to fix than to do the original coding, and comments that nobody understands the meaning of because the code is so mangled after all the 'fixes'.

@@alkestos then you pass it along to the next group of coders who have to spend the first half of the project figuring out wtf the last group of people were thinking, just to repeat the cycle😂

@@alkestos you could never make pain more laughable if you ever tried than what you just said here xD

Don’t challenge Sam o nella like that

michael reeves

At least he's reliable.

CGP Grey?

Only understood about half of that, but that sounds cool.

Yeah I've done the whole "I want to reinvent the wheel and code it from scratch all by myself". Fast moving objects absolutely gives me "back to the drawing board" flashbacks.

@@ViktorSarge On the other hand, doing things from scratch at least once can give a better idea how they work.. and will greatly increase your appreciation for existing libraries and engines. When I tried doing ellipsoid collision in my Minecraft clone, moving over the edge between two blocks at very high speed would make you bounce around the landscape like the Hulk. Floating point numbers are not our friends.

@@TheTrienco That's true! I did some light C++ at uni in the 90s and the manual labor required to do network programming really made me appreciate Python urllib later in life :D

@@ViktorSarge And at least until the next standard, there is still no networking in the standard library. I remember a Java assignment at uni to connect, download and display a HTML page. Coming from C++ I thought it's absurd to do that in one week (implementing the http protocal, a HTML parser, a renderer, etc.). Turned out to be a couple of lines, since everything is already there.

probably since that'll take a bit more time figuring out and coding it when while brute forcing takes a lot of time, he can just sit back and enjoy doing other things like the master procrastinator that he is (which isn't necessarily a bad thing)

You sir clearly dont know code bullet Dont get me wrong i would love to see that but he isnt doing it

i personally think it's fine to make the AI overfitting if the game only has one level and the purpose of the AI is only to beat that level.

@@TheKa4ever he has done neural networking AIs before. I think it'd be interesting to see one figuring out this game.

sounds like work

They would hack the human race

The most advanced one will just stand there and show its middle finger when they'll hit play

I feel like you could make a tas and that would technically be considered an ai... maybe with randomly generated levels though? That could actually be interesting to watch

Soooo, Pokemon?

The problem is that you know some are gonna train their AI to the point the AI will always find the most optimal solution, and nobody will ever win. AI races in set levels won't work. AI vs AI is only valid in super complex scenarios where they directly compete against each other and try to outsmart each other. That's why the OpenAI team is specifically developing an AI for DOTA 2.

This AI isn't really learning anything except a single route to get as high as possible. It's actual intelligence is fixed, and dumb as a rock. It has no idea what it's doing. It's basically button mashing and the single best route of each iteration gets immortalized and copy/pasted over the other 499 routes. It's possible to make AI's that actually get smarter, but it's far more difficult. Stuff worthy of science papers. edit: I forgot the part where he made it favor going higher or getting 'tokens' when it has to go down to advance. The AI isn't dumb as rocks. More like...an amoeba? Also, I should point out that this doesn't mean CodeBullet's AI is bad. If you've got a nail, a hammer is perfectly fine tool. Renting a 50ton excavator to nail your birdhouse together is all kinds of absurd. So long as the results are acceptable who cares how jank your tools are?

Yeah, it would be nice to see an AI that generalizes for unseen levels. But that's more difficult to do. It's still entertaining to see the dumb AI, though. It always gets me thinking on how it could be improved. I wish he made it more clear what exactly the AI sees. What are its inputs. Like he did in older videos.

@@LucasPossatti I was also wondering about that, but I actually suspect the only thing this one takes as input is the current level and current "score". IE, the bot has a fixed "strategy" for each stage, and then starts completely over with blind button mashing for the next stage. It's not analyzing the nearby geometry at all.

@@FiltyIncognito not sure what your point is? the goal of the ai was to learn how to navigate this specific character in this specific game through these specific levels, and it obviously learned how to perform this task better over time. its just not generalized to play all games as well. maybe thats what u trying to say?

I think thats called machine learning

No no no, "because I'm a crackhead"

hahaha true

“Gentlemen,I may not have a brain, but I have an idea…” hahahahahah awesome

At 25:59 the A.I used a glitch to get up to the next level xD

@@cameroncote4833 you mean wind?

@@MrLachek no, it basically glitches and double jumped through to the top of the block. not sure if that’s intentional game design with the wind though

Are they rly learning how to behave in situations or is this just almost random movement and if success then add to the best score kinda like?

@@kippe1221 yeah the method he uses keeps the best result from the random actions

@@gumbo64 dang thats lame then

yea this has nothing to do with AI and especially not machine learning.. it doesn't learn anything. It just keeps the random inputs that work and at the end strings them together. Literally anyone could code this "AI". It's just pure random brute force.

@@RitaTheCuteFox dont say that, this powerful AI might just wake up one day and hunt you down, terminator style. Nah seriously, this couldnt pump water if it was meant to

It isn't synced. It just looks that way because the AI has so many movements that any of them can be interpreted as being in sync with the music, so that's what your brain does.

@@LeoStaley Yeah, I definitely think you're right. But you have to admit, if 18:17-19:10 is a mistake, it's beautiful. Also 22:17-22:27.

For a guy who always talks about being lazy and taking shortcuts in his programming, he certainly goes all out on the editing
