Google DeepMind described its partnership approach to prototyping AI-powered gameplay experiences with game developers, building on its past use of games for AI research. The article cites a collaboration with Fenris Creations focused on EVE Online, which launched in 2003. The work shifts from AI that masters specific games to agent systems like SIMA that can understand and act in existing game worlds via natural language and typical controls, with longer-term plans to test agents offline before moving toward live EVE environments.
