Can AI fighters ever find peace?

Well if they were programmed with some kind of 'learning' algorithms then yes they could but it would still be limited.

AFAIK counter strike does this with the bots in a way with the pathfinding. You load a new map and it takes some time to map routes for the AI. But I guess this isn't really 'adaptive' AI.
 
This is like wargames in the end its better not to play type thing. so they would just sit there and do nothing. But then one of them will learn that the other ones are doing nothing and so he will ninja kill them all and win the round :D
 
Well programs can learn that certain inputs produces certain outputs (to a certain degree). In that way a bot might learn that killing another bot just causing him to respawn which effectively means that the kill had almost no effect.

So if you program them to be adaptive and to monitor all kinds of inputs and their results (pattern matching maybe?) and you program them to avoid tasks that are "inefficient" (like the above) then yes, they can find peace.
 
eh I don't think the author understands the current state of AI - even on a basic level.

The scenario assumes Strong AI. On that front we have made zero fckin progress. None. Personally I don't think we will either in our life times.

Pooky is a whole lot closer to the truth.

Not quite. CS paths are heavily pre-programed. I do think you're right in that there is some adaptation, but nothing hectic. True pathfinding is mostly seen in RTS games - generally some variation of the A* algo is used.
