Google/DeepMind just released a technical report on SIMA: Scaling Instructable Agents Across Many Simulated Worlds.
SIMA is an AI agent that can perceive and understand a variety of environments, then take actions to achieve an instructed goal.
Basically, before skull-stomping you into oblivion, SkyNet will now be able to play and beat Oblivion â without requiring explicit instruction on how any of the Elder Scrolls games work!
This still is a tribute. Check out the site, linked above, to see lilâ gameplay clips.
Our AI agent doesnât need access to a game's source code, nor bespoke APIs. It requires just two inputs: the images on screen, and simple, natural-language instructions provided by the user.
Today, itâs Goat Simulator, but tomorrow, it could easily be cleaning your apartment or caring for your loved onesâĻ
Ultimately, our research is building towards more general AI systems and agents that can understand and safely carry out a wide range of tasks in a way that is helpful to people online and in the real world.
