By 2023 neural network AI has become extremely advanced in processing visual, textual and audio information and is rapidly marching on. Networks such as [stable diffusion](stable_diffusion.md) are now able to generate images (or modify existing ones) with results mostly indistinguishable from real photos just from a short plain language textual description. Text to video AI is emerging and already giving nice results. AI is able to write computer programs from plain language text description. Chatbots, especially the proprietary [chatGPT](chatgpt.md), are scarily human-like and can already carry on conversation mostly indistinguishable from real human conversation while showing extraordinary knowledge and intelligence -- the chatbot can for example correctly reason about advanced mathematical concepts on a level much higher above average human. AI has become [mainstream](mainstream.md) and is everywhere, normies are downloading "AI apps" on their phones that do funny stuff with their images while spying on them. In games such as [chess](chess.md) or even strategy video [games](game.md) neural AI has already been for years far surpassing the best of humans by miles.

## Details
|
||||
|
||||
As programmers let's first answer ourselves this: what really is AI to us? A programmer/mathematician typically simplifies AI to mean only this much: **making decisions**. I.e. let's forget human brain, emotion, psychology and all this kind of stuff for a second and focus only on one thing: decision making, and how to program computers so that they make an intelligent decision from input data. Every single "AI" system never does anything more than just take a look at current situation (state, context, data, ..., just a bunch of numbers) and from all possible actions that may be taken from here it tries to pick the best one (i.e. output another number). Whether it's making the best move in [chess](chess.md), deciding which animal is captured in a photo, choosing how to translate a word from English to Spanish or choosing what pixel to draw on the screen so that the result will resemble human art, the problem is always reduced to only deriving a number from some other numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
AI to us is therefore nothing more than a mathematical [function](function.md) of state, outputting action (leading to another state). Also we will require this function to be pure, true and [deterministic](determinism.md) mathematical function, i.e. without any [randomness](randomness.md), hidden state etc., i.e. the function will always return the same result for the same input, the input depends SOLELY on the state we give it. In an extreme case every AI that works with finite memory could then literally be just a [table](lut.md) defining best action for any state -- but of course, such tables would be big and hard to make manually, so we typically try to create [algorithms](algorithm.md) that do the job of such table without taking so much space.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: Of course we sometimes want randomness, for example in chess we may want our AI to sometimes make a different move in the same position, but this added randomness always can (and SHOULD) be implemented outside of our AI function -- we may for example add an extra [seed](seed.md) parameter to our AI which will affect its choice, or we could make an AI that only ranks the quality of each move and then make our chess bot (built on top of this AI) randomly choose from let's say 3 best moves as judged by the AI.
|
||||
|
||||
The "modern" machine learning ([neural network](neural_net.md) etc.) AI is no exception here, neural network also implements a pure mathematical function in this sense. That is we are still facing the same problem, we are just trying to solve it by training a network that will make good choices. This approach is mostly about creating a good structure of the network, with good parameters (like number of neurons, layers etc.), encoding the states in good ways (i.e. mapping real world problems to numbers representing the state) and then training the network well, i.e. using right data sets, training algorithms etc. This art is very complex and can't be detailed here in depth.
|
||||
|
||||
The traditional non-machine-learning approach is a bit different -- it is based on manually programming **[state space search](state_space_search.md)** algorithms rather than training models. From [LRS](lrs.md) point of view this is probably the **more [KISS](kiss.md) way**, i.e. preferable, sufficient for many types of problems without needing extremely powerful machines or huge datasets. In essence we do this: we realize the states are basically nodes and actions are connections between the nodes, i.e. we get a **state space** which is a methematical **[graph](graph.md)**. Our program is always in some state, i.e. in some node, and the actions it may take are paths it may take in the graph, so really our AI is helping us travel through the graph so that we get from whatever state we're in to a better one (ideally best possible). Many different algorithms, [heuristics](heuristic.md) and optimizations exist here such as [depth first search](dfs.md), [breadth first search](bfs.md), [Monte Carlo](monte_carlo.md), [minimax](minimax.md) with alpha-beta pruning etc. -- they typically just [recursively](recursion.md) traverse the local space, i.e. take a look at states near the current one, and then say in which direction the best state lies. Let's remind ourselves this doesn't just have to be chess and chess moves, this may apply to flying a virtual plane or solving an equation. Again, the whole art of state space search can't be covered here in depth.
|
||||
|
||||
To sum up let's again compare the two mentioned approaches on the example of chess. Neural network machine learning will try to train a network (we could almost say by just [brute force](brute_force.md) trying many different parameters for the network) that takes a look at the chess board (which will be encoded into numbers) and then, by some kind of complex "[magic](magic.md)" that's really hidden from us somehow outputs the correct move (well, in practice it rather just scores the position, but let's neglect this now). Training such network will take a lot of time, data and electricity; it will result in a network that will pick good moves without us knowing HOW it really works (we just know it does), and the network will be just a network that filters input numbers into an output number. The traditional state search approach, on the other hand, will rather be a hand-made algorithm that will check all possible moves to certain depth and then return the move that it found will lead to a position that looks the best. I.e. here we know exactly what's going on, we have an algorithm simulating the human move calculation (looking ahead in the game for good moves), and the algorithm works iteratively, i.e. it has to perform many steps and playouts to actually see how to game evolves with different moves.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: State search is sometimes combined with neural networks -- good chess engines for example still do traditional state search but employ a neural network to decide how good each position is. This way we get the best of both world.

**Chess and [IQ](iq.md)/intelligence**: there is a debate about how much of a weight general vs specialized intelligence, IQ, memory and pure practice have in becoming good at chess. It's not clear at all, everyone's opinion differs. A popular formula states that *highest achievable Elo = 1000 + 10 * IQ*, though its accuracy and validity are of course highly questionable. All in all this is probably very similar to language learning: obviously some kind of intelligence/talent is needed to excel, however chess is extremely similar to any other sport in that putting HUGE amounts of time and effort into practice (preferably from young age) is what really makes you good -- without practice even the biggest genius in the world will be easily beaten by a casual chess amateur, and even a relatively dumb man can learn chess very well under the right conditions (just like any dumbass can learn at least one language well); many highest level chess players admit they sucked at math and hated it. As one starts playing chess, he seems to more and more discover that it's really all about studying and practice more than anything else, at least up until the highest master levels where the genius gives a player the tiny nudge needed for the win -- at the grandmaster level intelligence seems to start to matter more. Intelligence is perhaps more of an accelerator of learning, not any hard limit on what can be achieved, however also just having fun and liking chess (which may be just given by upbringing etc.) may have similar accelerating effects on learning. Really the very basics can be learned by literally ANYONE, then it's just about learning TONS of concepts and principles (and automatizing them), be it tactical patterns (forks, pins, double check, discovery checks, sacrifices, smothered mates, ...), good habits, positional principles (pawn structure, king safety, square control, piece activity, ...), opening theory (this alone takes many years and can never end), endgame and mating patterns, time management etcetc.

**How to play chess with yourself?** If you have no computer or humans to play against, you may try playing against yourself, however playing a single game against yourself doesn't really work, you know what the opponent is trying to do -- not that it's not interesting, but it's more of a search for general strategies in specific situations rather than actually playing a game. One way around this could be to play many games at once (you can use multiple boards but also just noting the positions on paper as you probably won't be able to set up 100 boards); every day you can make one move in some selected games -- randomize the order and games you play e.g. with dice rolls. The number of games along with the randomized order should make it difficult for you to remember what the opponent (you) was thinking on his turn. Of course you can record the games by noting the moves, but you may want to cover the moves (in which case you'll have to be keeping the whole positions noted) until the game is finished, so that you can't cheat by looking at the game history while playing. If this method doesn't work for you because you can keep up with all the games, at least you know got real good at chess :) { This is an idea I just got, I'm leaving it here as a note, haven't tried it yet. ~drummyfish }

At the competitive level **clock** (so called *time control*) is used to give each player a limited time for making moves: with unlimited move time games would be painfully long and more a test of patience than skill. Clock can also nicely help balance unequal opponent by giving the stronger player less time to move. Based on the amount of time to move there exist several formats, most notably **correspondence** (slowest, days for a move), **classical** (slow, hours per game), **rapid** (faster, tens of minutes per game), **blitz** (fast, a few seconds per move) and **bullet** (fastest, units of seconds per move).

On **perfect play**: as stated, chess is unlikely to be ever solved so it is unknown if chess is a theoretical forced draw or forced win for white (or even win for black), however many simplified endgames and some simpler chess variants have already been solved. Even if chess was ever solved, it is important to realize one thing: **perfect play may be unsuitable for humans** and so even if chess was ever solved, it might have no significant effect on the game played by humans. Imagine the following: we have a chess position in which we are deciding between move *A* and move *B*. We know that playing *A* leads to a very good position in which white has great advantage and easy play (many obvious good moves), however if black plays perfectly he can secure a draw here. We also know that if we play *B* and then play perfectly for the next 100 moves, we will win with mathematical certainty, but if we make just one incorrect move during those 100 moves, we will get to a decisively losing position. While computer will play move *B* here because it is sure it can play perfectly, it is probably better to play *A* for human because human is very likely to make mistakes (even a master). For this reason humans may willingly choose to play mathematically worse moves -- it is because a slightly worse move may lead to a safer and more comfortable play for a human.

Chess software is usually separated to **[libraries](library.md)**, **chess engines** and **[frontends](frontend.md)**. Chess engine is typically a [CLI](cli.md) program capable of playing chess but also doing other things such as evaluating arbitrary position, hinting best moves, saving and loading games etc. -- commonly the engine has some kind of custom CLI interface (flags, interactive commands it understands, ...) plus a support of some standardized text communication protocol, most notably XBoard (older one, more [KISS](kiss.md)) and UCI (newer, more [bloated](bloat.md)). There is also typically support for standardized formats such as FEN (way of encoding a chess position as a text string), PGN (way of encoding games as text strings) etc. Frontends on the other hand are usually [GUI](gui.md) programs (in this case also called *boards*) that help people interact with the underlying engine, however there may also be similar non-GUI programs of this type, e.g. those that automatically run tournaments of multiple engines.

|
||||
- Someone created a Doom system monitor for [Unix](unix.md) systems called [psDooM](psdoom.md) where the monsters in game are the operating system [processes](process.md) and killing the monsters kills the processes.
|
||||
- In 2024 some researchers made an experimental completely [neural network](neural_net.md) [AI](ai.md) game engine (called GameNGen) and implemented Doom with it -- basically they just made the network play Doom for a long time and so trained it to estimate the next frame from current input and a few previous frames. It can be played at 20+ FPS and looks a lot like Doom but it's also "weird", glitching, and having little persistence (it only remembers a few seconds back). Still pretty impressive.
|
||||
- Someone (kgsws) has been [hacking](hacking.md) the ORIGINAL Doom engine in an impressive way WITHOUT modifying the source code or the binary, rather using [arbitrary code execution](arbitrary_code_execution.md) bug; he added very advanced features known from newer source ports, for example an improved 3D rendering algorithms allowing geometry above geometry etc. (see e.g. https://yt.artemislena.eu/watch?v=RdbRPNPUWlU). It's called the Ace engine.

This is likely because GNU chooses to [battle](fight_culture.md) proprietary programs, often by trying to beat them at their own game, so features are preferred over [minimalism](minimalism.md) to stay competitive.
|
||||
- **GNU also doesn't mind proprietary non-functional data** (e.g. assets in video games). This goes against [free culture](free_culture.md) and many other free software groups, notably e.g. [Debian](debian.md). Justifications for this range from "data itself can't be harmful" (false), through "we just focus on software" to "we need GNU to be more popular" (i.e. compatible with proprietary games and so on). GNU is also generally **NOT supportive of [free culture](free_culture.md) and even uses copyright to prohibit modifications of their propaganda texts**: the [GFDL](gfdl.md) license they use for texts may contain sections that are prohibited from being modified and so are non-free by definition. They also try to "protect" their names, you can't use the name "GNU" without their permission and so on. This sucks big time and shows some of the movement's darker side.

FSDG will for example exclude any software from GNU approved repositories which merely *recommends* proprietary software OR *allows* installing it. This here is an authority doing thinking and ethical judgments for the people. It's without question we disapprove of proprietary software too of course, but it should never be the case that authorities should filter works for users based on their interpretation of the work, that is extremely, extremely dangerous and a repeatedly proven recipe for disaster. The service which software repository offers to the user must only ever be a simple, almost automated check -- for example of whether a repository has a free license -- but it must NEVER do thinking for the user. And this is what GNU does.
|
||||
- **GNU greatly pushes [copyleft](copyleft.md)**, which we, as well as many others, oppose.
|
||||
- **GNU embraces complexity, plays the corporate game and rejects the true way of freedom through [minimalism](minimalism.md)**. GNU basically just makes a mantra of "license with 4 freedoms on every software" and will mostly ignore everything else, they'll just do whatever it takes to stick with the mantra, i.e. GNU tries to achieve popularity, it tries to [fight](fight_culture.md) corporations, gets into activism, it will abuse copyright -- basically GNU wants to become a "superpower of freedom", it doesn't mind hierarchy, state, control, it wants to replace corporations in holding the power over technology, naively believing that it will be using the power for good. That's why they embrace complexity and harmful ways of [capitalist software](capitalist_software.md) (e.g. "GUI in everything", "fuck Unix", ...), that is why they simply copy proprietary software 1 to 1, just with a free license, it helps them be popular (people can drop in replace their proprietary software with GNU software), it also helps them get a [monopoly](bloat_monopoly.md) they don't mind (remember, they even ask people to transfer their copyright to them) as they DO want to become a centralized superpower. Where corporations push JavaScript on websites, GNU will just try to make sure the JavaScript has a free license, instead of rejecting the idea of JavaScript on websites. Where a corporation makes a "smart home", GNU will try to do the same, just with free software, instead of rejecting such a dumb idea in the first place. Anyone who ever saw anything from [history](history.md) knows it's not possible for a good superpower to exist -- no matter how pure it starts, with power WILL come corruption no matter what, any superpower will ALWAYS become evil. The TRUE way of freedom is simply abolishing all superpowers, embracing minimalism and giving power to the people instead of trying to fix maximalism and believe a monopoly will somehow be good. Just take a look at [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md) as a recent example of how these things end. This philosophy is what helps GNU be big in short term but it's also what will kill it in the long term.

- The MMORPG *New World* by *Amazon Games* was programmed by retards (probably some diversity team) who made the client authoritative which allowed for [fun](fun.md) such as becoming invincible by draggine the game window or duplicate currency with lag switches.
|
||||
- In 2016 there was a progaming team in Halo called Mi Seng which in a broadcast game did a pretty funny thing: when they were leading they went into hiding in buggy spots and then just did nothing until the time ran out. Normies were crying, the commentators were pretty awkward, they considered this "unethical" xD We consider it pretty cool.
|
||||
- In 2016 [Micro$oft](microsoft.md) released a Twitter [AI](ai.md) bot called Tay which was made to teach itself how to talk from the text on the Internet. It can be guessed it quickly became extremely racist and enraged waves of [SJW](sjw.md)s so they had to shut it down.

- That there is a light bulb in California that has been turned on since 1901 and as of writing this is still working? This shows that [old](old.md) things are better than those manufactured under more advanced [capitalism](capitalism.md) which pushes for more [consumerism](consumerism.md) and applies [artificial obsolescence](artificial_obscolescence.md). Many sowing machines made mode than 100 years ago still function perfectly fine as well as many other types of machines; anything created nowadays shouldn't be expected to last longer than 3 years.
|
||||
- That there exist [numbers](number.md) that are not [computable](computability.md) or are otherwise [unknowable](knowability.md)? See e.g. Chaitin's constant.
|

- That throughout [history](history.md) one of the most common patterns is appearance of new lucrative technology or trend which is labeled safe by [science](soyence.md), then officially recommended, promoted, adopted by the industry and heavily utilized for many years to decades before being found harmful, which is almost always greatly delayed by the industry trying to hide this fact? This was the case e.g. with [asbestos](asbestos.md), [freons](freon.md) (responsible for ozone layer depletion), [x rays](x_ray.md), radioactive paint (see *radium girls*), lobotomy (which even generated a Nobel Prize), some food preservatives, [plastics](plastic.md), smoking, car emissions and great many prescription drugs among which used to be even cocaine. Despite corporations denying it, there even appears evidence that cell phone radiation causes cancer (e.g. *Meta-analysis of long-term mobile phone use and the association with brain tumors*, 2008, even International Agency for Research on Cancer now holds that phones may pose such danger). Yet when you question safety of a new lucrative invention, such as [5G](5g.md), antidepressants or some quickly developed lucrative [vaccines](vax.md), you are labeled insane.

|
|||
- It is extremely [suckless](suckless.md), it may be implemented and played with the use of a [computer](computer.md) but can also be played without it, i.e. it has practically no [dependencies](dependency.md). In theory it can only be played in one's brain, making it [brain software](brain_software.md).
|
||||
- It is extremely [free](free_software.md) (as in freedom): firstly no one legally owns it and secondly its simplicity makes it free practically, anyone can play it and modify it regardless of where he lives, how much money he has, whether he has a computer -- even if one has no eyes or hands the game can still probably be played.
|
||||
- It may easily be played by any number of players, even solo. If one plays alone, he simply tries to find the fastest solution for given track. If multiple players play, they compete who finds the best solution.
|
||||
- It is [simple yet deep](easy_to_learn_hard_to_master.md), the rules are very simple but to find the optimal solution for given track may get very difficult, especially if the track is somewhat complex and employs e.g. a number of checkpoints that can be taken in any order. This is probably an [NP hard](np_hard.md) problem and finding a good solution may require a lot of experience, intuition, advanced programming techniques such as [machine learning](machine_learning.md) etc.

Provided we have these checkpoints, the problem is probably [NP hard](np_hard.md) and finding a good solution may require a lot of experience, intuition, advanced programming techniques such as [machine learning](machine_learning.md) etc. { One reader sent me a note on this, showing an algorithm that could solve a track in polynomial time using graph modeling provided we only have start and finish with no checkpoints (OR if the order of checkpoints is given). ~drummyfish }
|
||||
- It's not a mere game but a whole playground and "platform", for example it may be used to teach [vector](vector.md) mathematics, programming (path finding, heuristic search, [evolutionary programming](evolutionary_programming.md), ...), test machine learning algorithms etcetc.
|
||||
- It can be very nicely implemented on computers, even on very simple ones such as [8bits](8bit.md), without bloat such as [floating point](float.md), and is friendly to e.g. implementing replays, artificial intelligence etc.
|
||||
- The base version is extremely simple but may be extended greatly in various way, for example adding more rules or creating "rich" computer frontends; one may imagine e.g. a 3D frontend for the game with features such as bots, demo recording, different car skins, online multiplayer and leaderboards, track editor etc.

@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ Some notable methods and practices of steganography include:
|
|||
- Embedding in **images**. One of the simplest methods is storing data in least significant bits of pixel values (which won't be noticeable by human eyes). Advanced methods may e.g. modify statistical properties of the image such as its color [histogram](histogram.md).
|
||||
- Embedding in **sound**, **video**, vector graphics and all other kinds of media is possible.
|
||||
- All kinds of data can be embedded given enough storage capacity of given bearing medium (e.g. it is possible to store an image in text, sound in another sound etc.).
|
||||
- Information that's present but normally random or unimportant can be used for embedding, e.g. the specific order of items in a list (its [permutation](premutation.md)) can bear information as well as length of time delays in timed data, amount of noise in data etc.

Make the version number be automatically derived, for example use the [hash](hash.md) of the source code as version number, or maybe even better use the Unix timestamp of latest commit (that will allow to determine which version is newer), or something similar.

Great news is the development and main servers have so far not been infected by the [SJW poison](tranny_software.md) and (as of 2023) **allow a great amount of [free speech](free_speech.md)** -- another rarity. Even the game itself contains speech that SJWs would consider "offensive", there are e.g. voice lines calling other players "pussies" and "retards". This is great.
