Let’s make an AI that destroys video games (LAB): Crash Course AI #13

In this episode of Crash Course AI, we’ll create a game and then build an AI to destroy it. Our game is called TrashBlaster, and it’s like Asteroids but with trash in the ocean, and instead of a spaceship, John Green Bot is wielding a laser. We’ll use machine learning techniques such as an evolutionary neural network alongside a carefully crafted fitness function to create an unstoppable AI.
