What about VLAs for games? I think starting off with something basic like cards is a good idea
Everyone in SF plays poker would be a cool research problem to solve
Materials I need:
- Poker Table (not required but would help smooth training)
- Poker Set (already have)
- RFID Tagger Cards (maybe)
Things that need to be thought about:
- How is the bot going to know it’s it turn
- How’s it going to know the amount of chips it has
- How’s it going to know the number of chips it’s betting (denominations can be pre-set)
- How’s it going to know what’s the table
Annoying part:
- Ideally I don’t want to have to have a god’s view of the table (but this is inevitable)
Goal would be to have the most seamless integration and treat it like a normal player you can play along with. Initially I just want to work on the integration part of this, but later down the line it’d be cool to have the logic of the game handled by the VLA as well; Nobody likes to play against the bot who’ll play probabilities
