neat will check this out, havenā€™t really watched any Super Mario World/credit warp runs before and looks interesting.

damn thats amazing. is interesting seeing the different strategies that developed over time to execute credit warps.

hmm for some reason Fedora refuses to install the bootloader on my laptop. have tried it with both standard Fedora Workstation and a netinst image and it fails each time and checksums match.

yeah is what Iā€™m thinking. its a really old Intel ssd and iirc had some issues with it before.

That video sent me down a rabbit hole of neural networks playing video games. Now I want to train a neural network to play Forzaā€¦ Although, thatā€™s probably unrealistic.

would be neat to create a neural net that can play SMW. the main problem with most of the neural net works that play games is that they dont provide enough info to the net. only basic info about where blocks are and not what type of blocks it is

Well impulse Purchase

#6658

havenā€™t really looked into neural nets much but donā€™t most just aimlessly play through the level with not much context at all other than death and to avoid it until it eventually knows enough to complete it?

yes and no. Most just tell it a basic layout of the level and train the net for that level and just bruteforces it way through it until it finds a pattern that works

Isnā€™t that sorta cheating because the neutral net has pretext about the level and isnā€™t really learning anything other than a pattern?

#6661

still yes and no. it has a limited scope

Well, donā€™t speed-runners do the same thing? Iā€™m no good at games, so Iā€™m just making assumptions here, but I would hazard a guess thatā€™s what a lot of them do.
