A team from The University of Texas have, along with Romanian computer scientist Mihai Polceanu, won a competition for the “BotPrize”, which is awarded to whoever can come up with the most “human-like” piece of artificial intelligence in Unreal Tournament 2004 Why UT2004 and not, say, Counter-Strike? u31.com เข้าสู่ระบบ Because the competition was sponsored by UT’s u31 ทางเข้า publisher 2K games, that’s why! The contestants were judged by a panel of experts according to their “humanness”.
