tkdguy Posted November 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2018 I moved the video I had posted here to another thread. The Random SF Links thread I just started seems like a more appropriate place for the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 What better sport then racing like in "Ready Player one"? Thanks to it being a virtual world, death is not permanent. However thanks to the rule that you loose all money for others to pick up if you die, it is also not without consequences. There is a lot of room to tailor consequences if it is a virtual world.

Christopher Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 15 hours ago, tkdguy said: Sports where people compete with AI It is a sport of reaction time and calculation, the two things AI are normally really good at. However the hardware constraints of a drone might be an issue. If you have to put your AI into the drone, that would be a lot of extra weight. Squeezing the nessesary realtime hardware into the weight and size constraints of a drone could be a serious challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pariah Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 I read a short story called "Animal Lover" by Stephen R. Donaldson (as I recall) that involved a hunting preserve where the animals were genetically engineered to be able to use weapons and hunt you right back. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkdguy Posted February 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2019 I covered this before, but it looks like it's more widespread than I thought. Future Olympic sport? Probably not, but still looks like a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
