Game AI is an <artificial intelligence> that plays a certain game.

It can be either developed for <serious game>[serious] purposes (e.g. <AGI> development in <AI games>), or to make games for interesting for humans.

<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.
