I was just wondering if anyone at Stardock is currently following the Google DeepMind Go challenge, where an AI from a Google research division is using deep neural networks to beat professional players at Go, something that was considered beyond a computer's ability until quite recently. They got published in the "Nature" journal for describing their approach to use self-learning software to potentially teach a program to solve any problem, and applied it to Go most recently. There is now talk about the company trying their hand at Starcraft or other computer games next, since they already solved several arcade games in 2014. Are there any plans by Stardock to develop their AI by using neural networks yet, or asking Google to try their hand at Galactic Civilisations? This could potentially give the game a "hands-off" and still close to unbeatable AI, if desired...
