Dreamerv3: the artificial intelligence that diamond mine in “Minecraft” without human training

Google Deepmind presented Dreamerv3an algorithm capable of mining diamonds in Minecraft without depending on specific training or data provided by humans.
Minecraftthe video game is known by its random nature, which makes it a complex challenge for the Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Due to this characteristic, AI must perform a variety of actions correctly, such as exploring, building and, in this case, undermining or extracting resources, all while facing constant changes in the environment.
Google Deepmind team took advantage of this complexity to test Dreamerv3, an algorithm based on reinforcement learning (Reinforcement Learning), which can simulate future actions and optimize its strategy without depending on a specific set of predefined data.
The study, published in the magazine Naturedemonstrated how Dreamerv3 surpassed other specific models of domain, such as the proximal polycy optimization (PPO) of OpenAi, in a series of test environments.
The researchers highlight Dreamerv3’s ability to learn in Minecraft and their ability to adapt to a broader range of environments.
This achievement is due to techniques such as standardization and transformations, which allow learning to be more stable in various domains. In addition, the algorithm uses predefined mathematical functions to determine the rewards, which allows it to execute actions, such as hitting blocks repeatedly, to extract resources efficiently.
An AI that points to new possibilities
The ability of this algorithm to learn autonomously and adapt to different tasks without depending on specific data opens new possibilities for its application, not only in video games, but also in areas such as the control of simplified robots, where autonomous decision making is crucial.
With your ability to perform complex tasks, such as mining diamonds in Minecraftthe possibilities for future applications seem unlimited. If this advance extends to other fields, such as robotics or the management of complex dynamic systems, AI could play a fundamental role in the evolution of various industries.
