Google's AI model Gemini 2.5 Pro exhibits 'panic' behavior when close to failure while playing Pokémon, leading to performance degradation, but also demonstrates strengths like solving puzzles efficiently. The experiments offer insights into AI decision-making and stress responses, highlighting both limitations and potential for autonomous tool creation.
Turn 10 addresses Forza Motorsport fan complaints over progression, penalties, and AI, promising to prioritize addressing these issues in 2024 and provide quarterly communications. The team acknowledges fan feedback on car progression, Forza Race Regulations, and AI behavior, and plans to work on rebalancing and improving these aspects of the game, cautioning that it will take time to implement and test the changes.
Researchers from Stanford University and Google have created a virtual sandbox called Smallville, populated by 25 generative AI "agents" with their own identities, goals, and roles to play. The experiment aimed to examine how the agents interacted with each other and their environment, resulting in a functioning village with "believable individual and emergent social behaviors." The agents drew on generative models to simulate human behavior and interacted with each other in real language, making high-level inferences from information they learned. The experiment raises ethical concerns, but also has vast potential applications beyond the sandbox demonstration.
