AI Games – Video Games with Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence has been a rising source of video games for years now. Maximum video games-whether they’re racing games, shooting games, or strategy games-have numerous features that are controlled by AI, such as enemy bots or neutral characters. Even the vague characters that don’t seem to be doing much are planned to add more depth to the game and to give you suspicions about what you’re next steps should be.

However, there are also several other ways that AI and game development are growing through each other. Although AI endures being used to bring video games to life, video games are now being trained to study their own patterns so as to advance their own processes, which is just one of several ways that AI is becoming more advanced.

The second-largest gaming company in the Americas and Europe, Electronic Arts established a research and development division called SEED (Search for Extraordinary Experiences Division). The team used the maximum advantage of AI to explore new technologies and creative opportunities they can enable for future AI games. If we look at today’s Artificial Intelligence applications in the gaming industry, we will notice that Artificial Intelligence is mainly used in two areas: saving the budget on the game design and upgrading the in-game experience.

Boosting Gaming Experience with Artificial Intelligence

Another main use of AI in games is modeling a human player to understand how the interaction with a game is experienced by individual players. AI needs to know how a player feels and what a player does during the play.

Increasing the involvement of players is a bit more complex problem. Designers usually identify four main player modeling subtasks that are particularly relevant for the game Artificial Intelligence:

• Progress smart and human-like NPCs (Non-Person Characters) to improve interaction with gamers.
• Predict human players’ actions that lead to enhanced game testing and game design.
• Classify their behaviors to allow the personalization of the game.
• Discover frequent patterns or orders of actions to regulate how a player performs in a game.

Artificial Intelligence has become progressively approved and widely used in the gaming industry. The typical characteristics of games and game development make them an ideal playground for practicing and implementing AI techniques, especially deep learning and reinforcement learning. Most AI games are well-scoped; it is relatively easy to generate and use the data, and conditions/actions/rewards are relatively clear.
