Google Develops AI Gaming Companion That Can Follow Verbal Instructions Across Games
- Google is developing an AI agent called SIMA that can be an instructible co-op gaming companion
- SIMA can understand verbal instructions and navigate open world video games like Valheim and No Man's Sky
- SIMA has learned 600 basic gaming skills like navigation, object interaction, and menu use
- Early testing shows SIMA can perform almost as well in new games as agents trained specifically for that game
- While promising, it remains to be seen if SIMA can adapt and react as well as human players in complex games
