Why games don't use AI HW?

[The red spirit]

You say that but don't specify how. And that's because you have no clue.

That's not true, I explained how it could be solved in some cases.

The cores on the GPU aren't for that sort of AI they are for machine learning and stuff like that. I'm not sure we have a way to properly thinking enemies right now. Maybe once everything is running off the cloud and they can just throw massive resources at it that will change. I know people see cloud gaming and cringe but it's coming, the PC is going to be the first there as well just as it was with 3d, online, paid DLC, pay to win, and all sorts of other nonsense but it's not all bad. If you and everyone are playing on the same hardware with the same stuff and the game can just throw all the resources at the AI interesting things can happen.

Who's going to justify a supercomputer cluster being used to make decisions in a videogame?
Especially when you add in latency issues from it being remote



This whole thread is a misunderstanding of what "AI" is, it's been as mis-used as the word 'quantum'

AI has meant one thing consistently for the past 40 years.

'That thing computers couldn't do but soon can do (or now does) pretty well'

In the 80s, AI was searching for data and organizing it. Expert systems.

In the 90s it was winning chess games and mapping directions.

In the 00s, it was walking with bipedal motion. Only a human has the balance to stand up straight (well, before AIs we're programmed that could do it).

In the 10s, it was winning Poker and Go.
