Some more analysis of DeepMind's StarCraft algorithm - much more misleading than I originally understood: algorithm benefits from specialised game API and can access the entire map where humans cannot. When entire map access was lost, algorithm lost, stuck in a loop. @GaryMarcushttps://twitter.com/binarybits/status/1090669733270171648 …
just heard that it was trained on only a single map and restricted to that one; if true, that’s really embarrassing.

I'm a little wary of treating DeepMind with such lofty expectations, as it could inhibit research. They're don't have superpowers

Their own words fuel these expectations. Mastering SC2 they say (... But after ten paragraphs ... on a single tiny map, single race, some evasive stats like "average" APM, and gamey behaviors.) Still thinking it's a good work but the reporting is intentionally misleading.
