AI Learns to Play SUPER MEAT BOY (using Reinforcement Learning)

In this video we will be teaching an A.I. how to beat Super Meat Boy. We will be using neural networks and evolutionary algorithms to beat this video game with the help of machine learning. We will first make the game using Python and PyGame, after which we will add the AI and train it to play the game.

It's just fucking amazing. I literally did not saw the number of views and subscribers and jumped on the video. I seriously predicted that he must be having 100 k 200k subscribers. But damm. Keep up the good work Let me share it. Wait a minute

Thanks a lot for your kind words and for sharing the video! I'm really glad you enjoyed it, I'll try my best to make even better videos 😃

This was absolutely perfect. Instant subscribe. You deserve way more views because this is legitimately one of the most entertaining AI videos I've seen without being overdone.

@@coderboi5191 I was interested in this type of neural networking stuff and am planning to start with it so can you suggest some direction that how to start with it. Thank in advance:)

[@coderboi5191]

I'd definitely recommend learning python and then taking Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course on Coursera. If you can stick with it, by the end you will have made some cool projects and can start on his neural networks specialisation on coursera as well. Both of the courses are well made and go over everything from the basics. Best of luck on your ML journey!

Really sorry for the late reply, you can find the code here github.com/CoderboiYT/SuperMeatBoyAI Sorry if it's a bit confusing, I didn't make it to be anywhere close to production ready haha. There's a great playlist here which you can follow to understand how the ML code works kzbin.info/aero/PLZ1QII7yudbebDQ1Kiqdh1LNz6PavcptO

[@radanium]

You should make every motion like walking or jumping recorded as keypresses (so basically the way a player plays a game) then you boot up real Super Meat Boy and let the best AI do the levels for you.

[@korylinkin]

amazing video! can you make an AI that beats casino dice?

[@coderboi5191]

Thanks a lot! Might be difficult to beat a random dice but if it’s a loaded dice it might be possible. Trying to win big in Vegas? 👀😏

[@korylinkin]

nono im just curious about what kind of strategy the agent could came up, the problem has a nice reward so the ai could be very intrested (i think haha). im trying making one but i dont know how to approach the problem, will a LSTM help? will a very deep network work? its a simple game, betsize , win chance and direction , the objective of the agent will be make infinite bets (kind of stable strategy) and balance bigger than 0 , will the agent use fourier? small bets? im very curious about a genetic approach. how can a set that variables into a genetic algorithm? would it help that way? simple but maybe not (:

[@coderboi5191]

@@korylinkin That's a good experiment to try actually. I think you could use an LSTM and give the past x rolls as the input, action can be how much to bet and reward can be the money lost/gained. I think you can make an LSTM using Keras and train it using evolutionary algorithms using PyGAD. If you want something more customised you can follow this playlist (kzbin.info/aero/PLZ1QII7yudbebDQ1Kiqdh1LNz6PavcptO) on how to train genetic AI, make your own LSTM from scratch in numpy, and write your own function to mix the LSTM weights of 2 parent LSTMs.

[@korylinkin]

​ @Coderboi i will try to do some of that, thank you for the playlist. If you're intrested you can use the casino stake RNG for the roll of the dice, it feels more "random" to me than using a simple random js function and is the same generator as the real casino uses. I have one question, could the action be three things at the same time? (how much to bet , how much the win chance is and the side of the bet ) About the reward i think that it could be the amount of bets because if you can make a bet your balance is bigger than 0 and if you can make infinites bets it is like you are winning right? These days in casino you dont have to be in profit you need just a stable wagger strategy and claim the rakeback :D

[@phonetyx]

i know im late to this vid (im also comment 100 hey) but i dont agree when you said "they arnt learning how to paly the game they just memorizing how to play the level" that is how i got through a majority of the later stages, i basically memorizes an input sequence that would get me through the level, so in my eyes that 100% counts as learning how to play the game

[@doriothman9400]

Was trying to run the code, but noticed the folder with all the images for the game were missing. Would you be able to add that to the git?

[@coderboi5191]

Oops my bad, added!

[@doriothman9400]

@@coderboi5191 Thank you! I ended up adding it in myself. Also noticed you used bfs for the path finding. I reccomend using A* instead if you decide to expand or revisit the project. Super cool work!

[@coderboi5191]

Nice! I should’ve used A* but I was in a hurry and scalability wasn’t an issue for a small project so I just used DFS but good point, thanks!
