Veteran Pilot Loses Simulated Dogfight to Impressive Artificial Intelligence

#artificialintelligence

ALPHA's prowess is impressive, but equally amazing is the tiny computer that runs it. For such a complicated set of decision-making algorithms, ALPHA requires very little processing power, running on a 35 Raspberry Pi minicomputer. ALPHA uses what are called "fuzzy logic algorithms" to form a "Genetic Fuzzy Tree" system that breaks big problems down into smaller chunks so the system can evaluate which variables are relevant to a particular decision and which of those are most important. This allows the system to work more efficiently and rapidly.
