DeepMind StarCraft

from Siraj Raval

The AI research lab DeepMind created an algorithm that beat a top professional StarCraft 2 player for the first time! This is a huge achievement since this is an incredibly complex game that requires long term planning, game theory, and cooperative play. Their algorithm used a mixture of techniques that in the field of deep reinforcement learning. I'll explain how each of these techniques works, and how they all work together in unison.
