Episode notes
Procedural Storytelling in Games
- Games like Wildermyth and Unexplored 2 use procedural storytelling.
- AI Dungeon uses sophisticated AI for a similar outcome.
Twitch's Suspicious User Detection
- Twitch uses ML to detect suspicious users and hide comments needing moderator approval.
- This system aims to combat hate raids and platform abuse.
AI Assisting Mathematical Discovery
- DeepMind's AI helps mathematicians by identifying patterns and formulating conjectures.
- Mathematicians then verify these AI-generated conjectures through proofs.
