@dayluke01 @FGOLnews AWESOME :D

⚠ BIG ANNOUNCEMENT ⚠ 🎉I'm so excited to share that I have joined Ubisoft @FGOLnews as a Junior Gameplay Programmer🎉 I'm so thankful to everyone and still can't quite believe it! 😁 #ubisoft #gamedev #newjob #programming

IOT sensor network for Cornwall talk with props :)

At the @Fibre_Hub launch event today! Looking forward to seeing all the cool stuff people are working on :)

Highly recommended talk by Julian @Togelius on RL in environments with procedural content generation. Julian's and Sebastian's (@risi1979) seminal work influenced a lot of our research at @UCL_DARK & FAIR last year, e.g. the NetHack Learning Environment (github.com/facebookresear…).

@2048 Thanks for the link :)

Our Games Studies session continues with Daniel Gomme talking about 'What makes a worthy opponent?' #IGGI19

@GalaxyKate I saw some of these floating around twitter. They look really good, there are too many Ws in your link by the way :)

#fdg19 Now @rocanaan is presenting our paper "leveling the playing field", which is about AI vs human game competitions and fairness in those. With @ChristophSalge @nealen and @togelius. Paper is here: arxiv.org/abs/1903.07008

Now at @cog2019ieee, @rocanaan presenting our work on Diverse Agents for Ad-Hoc Cooperation in Hanabi arxiv.org/abs/1907.03840 #CoG2019

Great thought-provoking first keynote at #cog2019 by @Richard_Bartle on ethical questions arising from sapient and sentient #NPCs. Considering games as realities within reality. And games within these games. Oh I have so many questions..

Hanabi competition! Results not fully complete yet, but here are some! Congratulations Hopshackle! #CoG2019

At the #cog2019 best paper session there's a really cute murder-mystery framework with emojis. The game generates a whoddunit with 3 suspects and 1 victim, using a modified Ceptre in Python with MCTS based on authored social norms for motives. Apparently also anger as a resource.

@mike_preuss @nojustesen @risi1979 @togelius @SimonMarkLucas @a_dockhorn @gvgai @Cote_Marc @tavianator @ericxyuan @APTrizzle @SanazMostaghim The game Hanabi brings a twist of cooperation and partial observability to card games and the #CoG2019 Hanabi Competition encourages building AI to play Hanabi, in 1 (or more!) of 3 different tracks: hanabi.fosslab.uk Organized by @webpigeon youtu.be/y-If6ouseOQ
