Teaching AI about social intelligence through Minecraft

Teaching AI about social intelligence through Minecraft

Using a popular video game, two Fulton Schools faculty members have helped to generate a large publicly available human-AI research dataset that could make artificial intelligence technology capable of humanlike understanding. In ASU’s Center for Human, Artificial Intelligence, and Robot Teaming researchers used the Minecraft game to design complex and dynamic tasks in a simulated urban search and rescue mission — such as a fire sweeping through a small town. In doing so they’ve discovered clues to how to create machines with social intelligence. The project team members include Nancy Cooke and Jamie Gorman, professors of human systems engineering in in The Polytechnic School, part of the Fulton Schools.
