Space InvadersEveryone is talking about the race between Artificial Intelligence and Human Intelligence. When will AI fully surpass human ability and be in control of a majority of our daily lives? While humans spend their days going to school and educating themselves, what is AI doing to get an edge on the competition? AI needs to step up it’s game!Jokes apart, there is a technique in Artificial Intelligence called Reinforcement Learning (RL) which allows an AI to train/teach itself how to perform a certain task. In my case, I used RL to train an AI to play the Atari version of Space Invaders!In this article I will go through the concepts involved in creating an RL agent such as the one I made. I will also include my code if you want to see a Python implementation!Before we get (...)

Ready Player One and the Simulation Hypothesis: Are We Avatars in a Virtual World?
▻https://hackernoon.com/ready-player-one-and-the-simulation-hypothesis-virtual-worlds-avatars-cg
OK so I watched Ready Player One this weekend. I’d read the book a while back and you can imagine I was very excited to see this movie.After all, I grew up watching Spielberg’s films in the late 70’s and early 80s, I played Atari 2600 games as a kid, and these inspired me to make video games myself and eventually become an investor in a number of VR/AR companies.Here’s my take: there’s something profound that Spielberg and company accomplished with Ready Player One, and it’s not really about whether it was a “good” movie with good acting.It’s not even whether the story makes any sense. I will try to avoid spoilers here in case you haven’t seen it (which is not that hard to do for a movie where the story is almost secondary!).I’m also not going to pontificate on why the changes from the book were (...)
