Andre is presenting his session, streaming live from Montreal, Canada during the 24 hour Artificial (Un)Intelligence Conference.
Session Description, Agents as Players
The gaming industry is evolving, and AI-driven players are at the forefront of this transformation. True Bots is pioneering a new generation of machine learning agents that connect to multiplayer servers like human players, adapting to gameplay in real-time. Unlike traditional scripted bots, AI models can learn through reinforcement learning and self-play, making them virtually indistinguishable from human opponents.
In this session we explore how AI-trained agents are reshaping the entire video game industry. It's not about graphics: it's about gameplay, and the computer-controlled players you interact with, they are no longer rigid algorithms, these agents learn, adapt, form their own objectives, and act on them.
Beyond gaming, our simulated training pipelines drive AI for robotics, autonomous vehicles, and industrial automation—powering real-time, adaptable AI across industries.
