ai Newgrounds partnering with OpenAI

[MohawkADE]

Tom Fulp of Newgrounds.com has announced that they've officially partnered with OpenAI (a nonprofit cofounded by Elon Musk) to allow Game Developers who upload their projects to Newgrounds to participate in the project. In doing so, AI will attempt to learn how to play the games uploaded to the site and the firm will track the AI's progress.

This sounds pretty cool, but some game devs might be reluctant to upload their games for free, I feel.

This is newgrounds, all the games uploaded are free and have been for almost 20 years now I think

Devs do have the option to opt in or opt out of the program when they upload their project.

That poor AI will have to suffer through those terrible "dating sim" and the thousand of porn games.

Don't think it'd mind. It's AI, it's in it to win it!
