The scientists said they chose ‘ Minecraft ‘ because it is one of the world’s most famous games with over 90 million individuals playing it each month and it has “endless range” but easy linear laws.
“The opportunities for an AI to learn are huge, Facebook is setting itself the task of designing the AI to self-improve, the researchers think the ‘Minecraft’ environment is a perfect one to develop this kind of learning,” the report added.
