It seems like the algorithm wasn't able to account for where tiles will appear or their value, so looking 5 moves into the future isn't much better than just looking one move into the future

I like how even when "Thomas" finally succeeds, it's still less efficient than any even slightly smart human player, making Tommy sort of pointless, but he always was a problem child and it's the journey that matters, not the destination
"Thomas kinda sucks" I hear enough of this normally, I don't need it to happen here too

I'm pretty sure the original creator allowed for its free distribution so idk if he rly had to do that tbh XD

I love how much "failure" you actually include in your videos. It's interesting to watch how many types of things can actually go wrong while programming, and hearing what your thought process is to overcome them.
So basically avoiding the problem
Plot twist: hell release the second enigma machine video in the year 2048..he's leaving us clues
3:40. Well, that’s literally the strategy I’ve gone with for the past 2 years...
Axel Andersson same, but it doesn't always get you a 2048. There's the "luck" factor and that's why Thomas couldn't get it either.
This pretty much *is* the strategy for 2048; pick a corner and work toward it. It doesn't always work because the random placement of new tiles will occasionally put you in a state where it becomes impossible to win despite perfect play (as illustrated by the video), but that's the nature of any game that features a random element. Put simply, luck beats skill any day of the week.
Whatever you do, never move your largest value tile out of that corner - the RNG *will* screw you by immediately spawning a 2 there.
@Nathan Williams -- "never move your largest value tile out of that corner"
But sometimes that's the only move, alas.
Indeed, and the RNG gremlins are already chuckling.
Wouldn't a good way to make the AI develop better be to let each one do like 10 runs and see which one was the most consistant
Code Bullet: “Alright, I think I’ll go to bed.”
Thomas: “You’ll go to bed when we’ve reached 2048.”
I some how keep arriving at your videos late at night when I am searching for vids to watch and I always get so fascinated by you content.
Your second approach reminds me of the Othello algorithm I wrote for my introductory coding course a few semesters ago and I just wanted to say, I 100% understand watching said algorithm come *so close*

humans probably on generation like a million yet we still don’t know how to live perfectly. Good job AI
*247*
Me too
247***
Sergio Arvizu According to Wikipedia, the earliest representative of what we’d call humans, Homo Habilis, first showed up around 2.8 million years ago. Assuming generations take 20 years, which is probably very uninformed, that would be 140,000 generations.
Not as much as a million, but a bit more time to develop than 247 generations. That’d only get us to here from just before the Great Pyramids were built.
That moment at 9:08 where Tommy could have just gone up left left and reached 2048
Arpit Ranasaria YEAH
*GODDAMIT TOM*
Arpit Ranasaria right up left left
That’s where u see the value of human labeling. Simulating a human learning prespective is so hard that its better if a pro player of 2048 plays the game 500 times and we give the data to our neural network. Then AI can have a very good sense of what playing this game looks like. At this point AI knows how to play the game but there’s also room for improvement. so just like code bullet did, now we can use “choosing the best out of 5 moves” just like he did and it is gonna get better and better.
The more complex the problem (self driving car) the more useful the human teaching

I don’t get it
@Buddy Christ oh, I see. But what does that have to do with code bullet’s origins? Are they saying he’s a time traveler?
You should've told it that in addition to having the highest possible number in the top left corner is good, it should also prefer having as much free slots as possible and get rid of small tiles as much as possible
I would have thought that would be the one and only scoring method for future outcomes
He also had that the 2nd highest scoring tile should be next to the highest scoring tile. This should continue on down, the 3rd should be next to the second, the 4th next to the third.
The highest theoretical number is 131k but the biggest number achieved is 65k (I know person who’s done it but don’t know if anyone else has)
@@observable3194 I struggle getting past 4092 and I have spent way too much time playing 2048.
Yeah, I think the entire problem boils down to develop a better way to evaluate the "game state". Looking 5 steps into the future should be absolutely enough to win this game, probably even 3. But it's sort of useless if your definition of whether the game state is good or not is so bad. eg aligned values (along a sort of S-shape) are much better than a 15 / 6 / 13 / 1 / 7 etc. Would be a rather complex algorithm for a simple game but hey
I finally beat this game after so many years, I can die happy now
@HelloThere nothing crazy it just says you won and you can keep going if you want
You’re teaching me better than my professors did
When I went down the rabbit hole with this game, my strategy revolved around one simple restiction: choose a direction (in my case, up) and never move in that direction. A consequence of this is that the largest tiles end up on one face, similar to your "top left for highest value block" strategy. I wonder how the AI would do with this restriction in direction.
Edit: 2048 became an easy target, if I recall correctly, 8192 was the max I reached before throwing the game in my "NEVER TOUCH AGAIN" category.
i could neverrrrr reach 8196 how long did that take???
@Natsu Dragneel lol do you mean score or tile? because i doubt youre dating the world record holder lmaoooo
@Natsu Dragneel probably on the app where undos are possible too...
@Natsu Dragneel I don't know that it can be considered "low" against any reasonable standard, even if it's not a record. To put it into perspective, a 6x6 board offers 2.25 times as much play area as a 4x4 board, and with that extra area comes many options for storing large tiles while building smaller tiles needed for further advancement (at a point, the hardest problem becomes efficient use of space). But still, congratulations to your girlfriend, impressive work!
My strategy is spam random buttons at the start then press random buttons

@@yolkeggs you're missing something! Chess matches between different engines (ai's) are very common and some are far superior to others.

Perhaps a better scoring algorithm would reward keeping tiles of the same value adjacent, and also somewhat reward keeping tiles of almost-the-same values adjacent.
Also reward empty space, because that's your distance from the loss condition.
This just popped up, I’m expecting a video in the next two weeks. TH-cam always does this to me for some reason: a video I’ve already watched is re-recommended to me, and less than a week later a new video comes out. Hope I’m right
AI learns to play threes. Threes is a much more interesting game that was released before 2048. It takes a lot more strategy and just looks better
@Wax Meatley Funny thing is 2048 is the one that ripped off threes and gave it better graphics, that's what made it more popular
also the system behind the tiles added is much more complex in threes
You're the Illuminati.
Of course it was released before 2048, it isn’t even 2048 yet! It’s only 2019!

@@alexandrubragari1537 It's not impossible. You just have to intentionally be stupid.
Edit: I think it might be near impossible to not get to 32.
ATS Gaming you gave me challenge, im getting under 32 and i will never stop trying
Your sense of humor in these is simply amazing! Love it, doesn't matter how successfully or not your creations are, your commentary makes these 10/10. It's pretty cool to see what challenges you run into and what solutions you come up with to them. Interesting to see your different approaches :)
I remember figuring this out and maxing out the game because you couldn't fit any more unique tiles on the screen to add together
While keeping the biggest number in the corner and the next biggest right next to it is an important part of the winning strategy, it's also worth noting that the undo function is quite useful for any unlucky spawns. For example, if you are forced to move the biggest number out of the corner and a 2 spawns in the corner, you can undo the move3 and do it again in the hopes of a better spawn. Or another one could be a 2 spawning when a 4 would be better (or vice versa). Or times when the spawn happens on the wrong line and it would mess up all your plans. While a lot of these examples usually won't prevent you from getting to 2048, getting into higher numbers requires knowing when to use the undo function (also worth noting that you can only undo 1 move at a time).
This was even more hilarious to me because my real name is Thomas but I rarely go by that anymore.

Vigorous dingle exactly my thought

I found your channel from the enigma video, would be great to see some more!
Me toooo :)
I think the issue with using a MinMax strategy, that is the game states algorithm CB was waltzing around, is that it cannot accurately account for the randomness of the new tiles that spawn in. These new tiles have a random location with a probabilistic value. When 'aiming' for a future state, it is possible that state is unachievable because the tiles needed to get there didn't spawn in the same locations with the same values.
It sounds like you implied you were using the minmax algorithm to evaluate the future game states. When evaluating the game state, you could take into consideration the possible locations for the new tile & its value (called substates) and apply a modified minmax algorithm to those substates. I can tell that this is not being done because of the move at 8:25, where 256,128,128 is moved right. The minimum state for that move would have been a 2 being added at the top left corner, permanently (for the forseeable 5 future moves, actually) displacing 512 from being in the top left corner. A left direction in this instance would be the better move.
I'm halfway motivated to make a better algorithm for this game myself now

9:08 up left left
right, up, left, left( there are alot of other ways ive also seen to instantly solve it but whatever)
Yeah ikr down, right, up, left, left
Thomas seems to always wants to solve the block from top left to right so at 9:07 he wanted to solve the top far right block next??
The second example used for game states (5:22) is a very thoughtful game state to be in since there are only 2 moves to get out of the situation
Not that it matters but the timestamp is behind by one second
"i couldnt be bothered and i wanted to do this more" damn bullet i relate to that.
I wonder how long it would take thomas to get to the 131072 tile. It would require a large amount of luck with tiles and probably takes trillions or more trials
ZX T I wonder that too. I had the same game going for months. Of course I didn't play it everyday. But it took forever. Mainly cause I had to fix mistakes. And of course it wasn't 4X4.
thommy will just print a tile with 131072 on it and call it gg
@@fotwen Have you tried the 5D? 2x2x2x2x2? (2x2 grids layed out in two 2x2 grids, wasd within a grid, rf to go up, qe for within the two metagrids, and zx to swap between those). Since it's 32 empty tiles instead of 16, two tiles spawn with each move.
@@TheeCK1357 It can, it's the theoretical maximum possible with a 4x4 grid. It requires a perfect arrangement of tiles to reach, and a 4 MUST spawn in the empty tile.
It can fit that but I had that block in the bottom left corner and the 4 in the bottom right. All other tiles where occupied by their highest possible value
