Video game written by AI has been released
A PhD student from Britain's Imperial College has launched a video game that was co-written by an artificial-intelligence (AI) machine named Angelina. PhD student Michael Cook and Fellow Simon Colton of the Imperial College's Computational Creativity Group have been working since 2010 on Angelina -- an AI machine that automates the video-game creation process. She does this by learning and borrowing code from pre-existing games, then applying that knowledge to new games under development -- at the moment, two-dimensional arcade games and side-scrolling platformers are about as complicated as she can manage, but Cook and Colton are working on expanding her abilities to be able to develop her own game concepts. So far, the team of Cook, Colton and Angelina has released one game: the Christmas-themed A Puzzling Present for Windows, Mac, Linux and Android. According to Cook, there are a few problems with a computer AI generating video games for a human audience.
