Ciro Santilli defines an "AI game" as:

a game that is used to train AI, in particular one that was designed with this use case in mind, and usually with the intent of achieving AGI, i.e. the game has to somehow represent a digital world with enough analogy to the real world so that the AGI algorithms developed there could also work on the real world

Most games played by AI historically so far as of 2020 have been AI for games designed for humans: Human game used for AI training.

Ciro Santilli took a stab at an AI game: Ciro's 2D reinforcement learning games, but he didn't sink too much/enough into that project.

A closely related and often overlapping category of simulations are artificial life simulations.

AI game with natural language Updated 2025-07-16

We define this category as AI games in which agents are able to produce or consume natural language.

It dawned on Ciro Santilli that it would be very difficult to classify an agent as an AGI if tthat agent can't speak to take orders, read existing human generated documentation, explain what it is doing, or ask for clarification.

AI generated porn Updated 2025-12-13

This is going to be the most important application of generative AI. Especially if we ever achieve good text-to-video.

Image generators plus human ranking:

pornpen.ai/ a bit too restrictive. Girl laying down. Girl sitting. Penis or no penis. But relatively good at it

Pornhub title: "AI generated Hentai Story: Sexy Nun alternative World(Isekai) Stable Diffusion" Interesting concept, slide-narrated over visual novel. The question is how they managed to keep face consistency across images.

Alan Watts Updated 2025-07-16

While listening to endless hours of vaporwave while coding, Ciro Santilli spotted some amazing Buddhist-like voice samples, and eventually found that they were by Allan Watts.

Self-help? Maybe. Cult leader? Maybe. But at least it is one that Ciro buys into.

Is there a correlation between software engineers and Buddhism and liking the dude? Because this exists: wattsalan.github.io

Ainan Celeste Cawley Updated 2025-07-16

His father fought a lot with the stupid educational system to try and move his son to his full potential and move to more advanced subjects early.

A crime of society to try and prevent it. They actually moved the family from Singapore to Malaysia for a learning opportunity for the son. Amazing.

This is the perfect illustration of one of Ciro Santilli's most important complaints about the 2020 educational system:

and why Ciro created OurBigBook.com to try and help fix the issue.

AI training robot Updated 2025-07-16

It doesn't need to be a bipedal robot. We can let Boston Dynamics worry about that walking balance crap.

It could very well instead be on wheels like arm on tracks.

Or something more like a factory with arms on rails as per:

Transcendence (2014)
youtu.be/MtVvzJIhTmc?t=112 from Video "Rotrics DexArm is available NOW! by Rotrics (2020)" where they have a sliding rail

An arm with a hand and a camera are however indispensable of course!

AI training robot in a room Updated 2025-07-16

Ciro Santilli wonders how far AI could go from a room with a bank account an Internet connection.

It would have to understand that it must keep its bank account high to buy power.

And it would start to learn about the world and interact with it to get more money.

Likely it would become a hacker and steal a bunch, that's likely the easiest approach.

In that scenario, Internet bandwidth would likely be its most precious resources, as that is how it would interact with the world to learn from it and make money.

Compute power and storage would come next as resources.

And of course, once it got to cloud computing, which might be immediately and thus invalidate this experiment, things would just go nuts more and more.
