He would make a game that rivals ksp

[@PezzzasWork]

Thank you for your optimism :D

[@xymaryai8283]

haha, i would like to see a 2d space program run by neural nets, NNSP or i guess just AISP, or get more specific like GANSP, either way machine learning space program would be cool!

[@KO6BXL1]

this is ksp wdym

[@danifalkjensen]

look a bit like spaceflight simulator

[@alexwimmer5198]

Altho it doesn't have aero and kerbals. Yet.

[@MichaeltLoL]

I gave like to this video before it got loaded cause knew that it was going to be something amazing

[@PezzzasWork]

Thank you :D

[@djpcradock]

I love how you visualize the network. I never did this when I played with NNs, I like how you can see the inputs and the outputs change. I'm not sure about seeing the nodes inbetween though, although I guess as you've done the inputs and outputs, you might as well :)

[@DenGuleBalje]

Bro. Subbed for the Medal of Honor music

[@ITomocska]

Very nice. I wonder what would happen if you accounted for the loss of fuel/mass

[@PezzzasWork]

I will try with it :) the response should be a linearly decreasing booster load which is hopefully something the network should get quite easily

[@Yabibi_]

Love your videos, they are inspiring me to code more and create cool things.

[@dddbra1748]

I love those smoke, it looks great!

[@doggo9757]

I like the title. Also great video, I'll Bing watch your channel after the exam.

[@peridoritothemighty5226]

Really cool, I love the smoke animation as well!

[@giacomotampella]

Maan! I love your projects! Keep it up!

[@xwashere]

everyone gangsta till the rocket starts flying down

[@TheSostenesg7]

Medal of honor track. I love this song

[@Ivan2294]

MOH theme was not expected

[@astrocatsoft]

Very cool! Maybe now make a multi-stage rocket and neural network would try to get this rocket to orbit in a most efficient way?

[@thorbenpultke1350]

In which way did you animate this? Have done a GA approach for my Bachelor Thesis for Robotic arms and would like to enhance it with neat animations.

[@theMATORG]

Better title: SpaceX in 2D

[@bigsmoke6414]

mom can we have spacex? we have spacex at home, and its not really that bad, its pretty good

[@virusstudio7115]

now, we need to make this into a simulation/sandbox game

[@user-cd4bx6uq1y]

Rocket path tool!

[@zynthssam7461]

Is there a good reason for the overshoot? I mean, it's quite quick, responsive and impressive, but it could be better isn't it?

[@stelcxantisto]

Now account for oxidizer and fuel and limited throttle range.

[@Whyamisaad]

Amazing

[@undefinedengineer8794]

Wow! Supercool!!

[@mariovelez578]

What algorithm did you use to train this? I remember following a tutorial on Deep-Q learning that did something like this

[@PezzzasWork]

It's 100% based on a genetic algorithm, there is no proper backpropagation

[@vcri8093]

​@@PezzzasWorkhow did you calculate the fitness/reproduction-probability? I tried something similar once but yours works much better!

[@kaangul1116]

Thanks for vid. But how you doing this? Whats your programming language and app name? PC specs? HOWWWW??

[@bobsmithy3103]

What were the inputs and did you use genetic algorithm or backpropagation?

[@jhoanmartinezsilva2609]

amazing

[@MACHINEBUILDER]

Super cool! I'm loving the drones and rockets being controlled via neural networks :D _I totally didn't try it myself in python and fail miserably_ ... I remade the drones with python & pygame, and wrote my own neural network library so I could try remake what you did, although I probably messed up the fitness function since the drones repeatedly get to some state they can't progress further from

[@CallumPooleProgrammer]

I was expecting an explosion after landing

[@RicardoSilva-wo8sw]

Add random wind

[@blinded6502]

Neural networks are fun, but this algorithm is pretty easy to do even without them.

[@PezzzasWork]

Yes absolutely, it was 100% for fun :) it's just so satisfying to introduce a neural network to a random problem and watch the genetic algorithm make it work

[@blinded6502]

@@PezzzasWork It would be kinda cool to have some bots fight one another, while being in an orbit all around the planet.

[@TGrod]

Ты 24 часа в сутки кодишь?) Столько разных годных видео. Я просто в шоке. Откуда столько идей?)))

[@okboing]

I wonder how it would have evolved differently if it didnt have to wait a second at each point?

[@mikedev5263]

Where can I learn these skills ? Please 🙏🏻

[@husc7775]

i just wondering if this was i real live what fuel it would reqiure to nmake such a movment. i guess for anitmater-mater anihilation engine.

[@FahrurRoziqin]

Cool

[@peterndungu41]

Hello , i wonder if you have some c++ book recommendations, would really appreciate that

[@onymous5719]

is it Balance on 3D directions or in 2D

[@aquafenaa]

It can do what SpaceX can't: Land

[@nate_4000]

every time i see a -0 in any form i just think... "ah yes, negative nothing"

[@joshuahyatt9465]

Looks like the nn is controlling angular velocity directly? Be interesting to see what would happen if you gave it gimbal control instead

[@PezzzasWork]

The network is controlling the booster’s power and orientation, not directly the angular velocity which is a consequence of the force applied by the booster

[@charliefox9831]

Nice! Did you just grab the first few layers from your drone video and do transfer learning or did this have to train on its own?

[@PezzzasWork]

I re trained the network from scratch, I think the problems are too different to benefit from a transfer

[@rhemmiel]

Lunar Lander AI

[@-lolus-]

i would like the wideo ... but there are 420 likes...and i like it ;p

[@kaushalkishore7782]

What is the input to the Rocket Neural Network ?

[@PezzzasWork]

to_target.x to_target.y velocity.x velocity.y cos(angle) sin(angle) angular_velocity

[@netric9084]

"Budget SpaceX" That's a NASA rocket.

[@anondude6361]

You should add a fuel

[@blocksrey]

No need for physics when you got neural networks

[@GbpsGbps-vn3jy]

Add fuel so this AI can learn to optimize the consumption and wind streams to learn how to compensate for stability

[@forg3214]

Could you teach it to bellyflop?

[@thatlinuxguy9902]

Wait, that's saturn v!

[@DoctressCalibrator]

Now do it in 3D.

[@user-tc4hi7dn1q]

Is this KSP 2

[@Zedryx69]

So... the drones but the AI suffers more? awesome.

[@Xuricat]

We need mod for ksp...

[@matthewjenkins914]

Elon has done it again.

[@Yobs2K]

Now make it in KSP

[@jamiewilson187]

KSP actually has a lot of really cool self-landing mods

[@rvoros]

actually, better than spacex :D

[@nayeemuddin2334]

I didn't understand.. what are those in the left bottom??? How rocket was following the yellow dot???

[@somerandompersonintheinternet]

The bottom left part is a neural network. You can get a quick overview of them here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJfQd5l6Z7d8mck There's also plenty of material online about them, if you're interested. How he got the neural network to properly control the rocket is a bit harder to answer, but hopefully you'll get a vague idea once you understand what a neural network is.

[@theimperial9858]

dude that's amazing. but i would rather watch a 8m videos where you explain the fuck is happening you know. This is great work, show us the whole project, not the 200th generation... :) good job

[@aidenroth9678]

You could beat Elon himself

[@thatgaming1940]

Imagine if the Saturn V was that maneuver

[@BBKOG]

what the fuck is this
