Survey maps path to generalist AI agents mastering virtual worlds

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new survey paper published on arXiv explores the development of foundation models for creating generalist agents capable of mastering diverse virtual worlds. The paper outlines four eras of progress, from symbolic learning to current foundation models and a future creator stage where agents both build and evolve within game environments. It identifies five fundamental trade-offs that currently limit these systems and proposes a five-step roadmap to achieve agents that can seamlessly master any challenge within a multiverse of games, paving the way for Artificial General Intelligence.
