AI Agents Take on Minecraft: SingularityNET’s Proto-AGI Learns in Virtual World

Summary

SingularityNET and ASI alliance has dropped a next-generational experiment, a self-learning robot, or proto AGI that learns and levels up in minecraft by itself. They are currently testing on how this AI could think and learn like us humans. Its just like giving an AI its own playground and us monitoring over it to see how it adapts to its environment. The experiment’s pretty wild and could be a huge step towards building smarter and more ethical AI in real life.

A decentralized artificial intelligence network called SingularityNET and the ASI Alliance, also a team focused on advancing artificial superintelligence have together lunched their first self-learning proto-AGI within Minecraft. This AI could be very powerful if it works as expected in minecraft.

So basically, this AI is let to play minecraft and explore its features on its own. Minecraft is a survival game, in which users are spawned in a random terrain with absolutely nothing. Users then have to navigate through the world find essentials for survival by themselves. This proto-AGI launched by SingularityNET and ASI alliance is supposed to navigate their way to survival by itself.

This sort of AI is called Autonomous Intelligent Reinforcement Inferred Symbolism (AIRIS), it functions outside of its pre-set rules and hence evolves as it encounters new challenges. An ASI Alliance spokesperson quoted minecraft is perfect fit for this purpose. This working style of AIRIS aligns well with Minecraft’s open-ended, unpredictable sandbox world, providing an expansive environment for which the proto-AGI can test the limits of autonomous AI learning.

If this functions as expected, it will be a huge leap for artificial general intelligence development as this same AI could be placed in real life scenarios and it could find a solution that we couldn’t.
