Sinossi

AI in Games explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence in the gaming industry, highlighting its potential to augment creativity and enhance player experiences. The book examines how AI reshapes game design, enabling more engaging non-player character (NPC) behavior and the development of self-learning AI opponents that adapt to player strategies. It traces the evolution of AI in games, from simple scripted behaviors to sophisticated machine learning algorithms, providing context for understanding its current capabilities and future potential.

 
This book delves into the core concepts and applications of AI algorithms within gaming. For instance, reinforcement learning is used to create adaptive AI opponents, while procedural content generation allows for vast and diverse game worlds. The book doesn’t just showcase the benefits; it critically examines the limitations, challenges, and ethical implications of integrating AI into game development.

 
Structured to provide a comprehensive overview, it begins with foundational AI concepts like pathfinding and behavior trees, progresses to machine learning applications, and culminates with a discussion of future trends and ethical considerations. AI in Games distinguishes itself by offering a balanced perspective, supported by case studies and analyses of research papers, intended for game developers, AI researchers, and students.

 
Readers will learn practical AI techniques applicable to various game projects, from indie to AAA titles, along with insights into ongoing debates, such as the trade-offs between rule-based AI and machine learning, and the impact of AI on game balance and player experience.

Of Ice and Men - How We've Used...

Fred Hogge

An exploration of humanity’s relationship with ice since the dawn of civilization, Of Ice and Men reminds us that only by understanding this unique substance can we save the ice on our planet—and perhaps ourselves. 
 
Ice tells a story. It writes it in rock. It lays it down, snowfall by snowfall at the ends of the earth where we may read it like the rings on a tree. It tells our planet’s geological and climatological tale. 
 
Ice tells another story too: a story about us. It is a tale packed with swash-buckling adventure and improbable invention, peopled with driven, eccentric, often brilliant characters. It tells how our species has used ice to reshape the world according to our needs and our desires: how we have survived it, harvested it, traded it, bent science to our will to make it—and how in doing so we have created globe-spanning infrastructures that are entirely dependent upon it. 
 
And even after we have done all that, we take ice so much for granted that we barely notice it. 
 
Ice has supercharged the modern world. It has allowed us to feed ourselves and cure ourselves in ways unimaginable two hundred years ago. It has enabled the global population to rise from less than 1 billion to nearly 7½ billion—which just happens to cover the same period of time as humanity has harvested, manufactured, and distributed ice on an industrial scale. 
 
And yet the roots of our fascination with ice and its properties run much deeper than the recent past.
