I was rooting for blue from the jump, but red really gave that one away at the end. I appreciate the creativity of the Chad move of slapping the ball with the counterweight hand after making good contact with the paddle hand.
9:35 Red was so unbelievably flustered when his opponent made a diving save that he fumbled and hit his own side of the net shortly before fainting of embarrassment.
Red was really the people's champion in this video. At 4:35 he preforms a goddamn scorpion kick to try to save the point, at 7:45 he strikes a pose after winning the point, and at 10:18 he is so sick of Blue's shit that he just slaps the serve out of the air with his hand.
The table tennis playing was so realistic to form. Who doesn't remember seeing the 2012 Olympics where the players waved constantly to the crowd before falling over
My favorite part of the 2012 tennis olympics was when the tennis players hit the ball with a paddle super glued to their arm while having constant seizures.
I just think the AI wasn't trained to limit their victory and anger spasms to movements that don't result in a floor visit. That's more what tennis players do.
7:25 This entire sequence of events just keeps getting more hilarious. -Red accidentally punches the ball into the shadow realm -Red attempts to atone for its mistake by doing a sick lunge shot, proceeding to absolutely eat shit and miss completely -Both players spot a shiny object on the ground and lunge towards it, forgetting about the game entirely
It may or may not be 4am, and I may or may not have started crying from how hard I was giggling at your descriptions, trying not to wake my roommate in the next room over 😂
It really is wild. At times it's like watching actual 5 year olds play, and at other times, it's like watching experienced players but blackout drunk. The aimbot is on point, but the walking/positioning AI is still just trying its best not to tumble into the bushes and often failing at that. I wonder if a bunch more generations of walking AI training would get things to the point where the match would be deadlocked and you'd need training for the AIs to try to take advantage of each other's position - to not just successfully land a shot on the other side of the table, but to try to land a shot out of reach of the opponent... or even fake the opponent out.
The spectators following the ball and turning to each other like they're talking is such a small detail, but I apreciate it very much I thing it really shows the attention you have to make each video as great as you can. And to that... I tip my hat for you Mr. Banana Fish
That's probably because of the previously mentioned issues the ai has when facing backwards from the direction its neural network evolved to move relative to. It does look comical though.
Yes! Completely agree, was about to make the same comment. Had me laughing so hard. Just love the idea of falling over while playing table tennis and managing to keep the volley going from the ground.
If you give them a sort of "stamina" during training phase, where it uses more stamina to make quick movements, it might encourage slower/more accurate movements as opposed to a hyperactive pelvis.
What I’m curious about is if you retrain the blue character from scratch, and put it up against (unchanged) red again, if they have different approaches. Because now they’re essentially running the exact same network.
I came to ask the same question. Coulda just been coincidence of random events but the two combatants seemed to have different styles. Blue was usually crowding the table while red kept some distance. Looked pretty consistent.
The way both AI are jamming out with their left arm is so hilarious to me, I have to laugh out even when I am seeing it for like 10 seconds. Such a good video! I know this channel since the first vid and there was never a bad one. One of my favorite TH-cam channels ever.
Red may be a prince of style with outstanding showmanship but Blue is the true king of agression with a skillful display to rival even the swankiest moveset.
This AI learned to bowl, play ping pong, and be Spiderman. I bet it will eventually learn how to shoot guns. And when it does, let's hope it won't have any hard feelings for b2 force feeding and tasing it for our entertainment.
It would be interesting to see a neural network able to do those things, the reward function would be very hard to do though, luckily the inputs are very similar across the three tasks
3:40 red falls out of arena 4:20 red rages 4:35 red kicks ball 4:45 red falls and gives up 4:58 red jumps 5:38 blue falls then has a seizure 6:15 blue falls but gets back up 6:40 blue kicks ball out of the arena 7:25 red punches ball out of the arena 7:35 red jumps onto table 7:44 red jumps towards blue 9:35 blue falls but still wins and red has a seizure after losing 10:12 blue starts walking towards red after losing 10:18 red punches away ball 11:11 red punches ball to the ground
It would be interesting to train both AIs independently by letting them play against each other to see if they develop certain strategies/personalities
No, because the trained part of the AI doesn't control the shots. The shots are not controlled by the AI, but the aimbot programmed using a relatively simple equation. The AI moves it' hand to the position the aimbot tells it to. In order to get the AI to figure out where to make the shots on its own would require the AI to have some representation of the balls position added as inputs to the neural network. Simply adding a reward even then, probably wouldn't get it there. Definitely possible but would require a lot more work. @@gsuk28
The problem is they would just wobble around the floor forever, the reward function of winning points is not gradual enough to get them to learn properly
Amazing work! The issue with quaternions reminds me of a paper "On the continuity of rotation representations in neural networks" (CVPR 2019) where they show a 6D representation of rotation can lead to better learning. Along these lines it has become common in the field of neural character control (e.g. Mode Adaptive Neural Network SIGGRAPH 2018) to instead use the described 6D representation because it interpolates better; it avoids the so-called "double-cover of SO(3)" that quaternions have requiring you to have to pick the correct quaternion version. The 6D rep is unique per rotation so doesn't have this issue. You might find they learn better when using the 6D representation. Or they might not, as things in deep learning very often go :P
At 6:38 the kick is impeccable. "I think they'd be ok at soccer". Training like 8 similarish rules sports bots and trying them on the wrong game would be extra chaotic, now that i think of it.
INCREDIBLE. This might just be the coolest video i've seen about AI ever. Seriously, the fact that the audience follows the game as well. 11 Chefs kisses out of 10.
I love how when one falls over and or the ball hits the floor, the ai just gives up and falls over also I love how blue got mad about falling over at 6:39 that he literally kicked the ball out of bounds
The amount of polish on display is astounding. I almost want a breakdown on how the fish in the audience decide when and how to stop watching the ball. And the alternate transition animation for the secret games at the end was a brilliant touch.
3:08 "This simple tweak solved the problem, and the blue AI started working perfectly." Cutting to the thing having a seizure made me burst out laughing This video is comedy gold
I was dying laughing at multiple points throughout this video. It's been a long time since something has made me laugh this hard. I love your content so much.
Considering you have them balancing on two tiny spheres with knees they seem basically unable to use, I'm stunned they were able to do anything other than scream and beg for death.
4:22 - the way Blue celebrates is hillarious :DDD btw, you definitely forgot to flip something else, since Blue tends to get closer to the table, and Red like to get further from it and make long drives
Oh my god I love this. The sporadic constant movement. The random face plants. The way they look like they're constantly super excited and do random flips after a point is scored. This video is incredible.
There should be more AI sports competitions like this. Like building a few games like this and letting different people try to solve it in a given time and make them compete against each other. This was really enjoyable to watch and you can really see how much you learned from the previous videos as well 👀
6:44 Commentators: Ooh a fit a rage has come over blue as he kicks the ball into the stands. I tell ya Mitch, he’s not going to make it to regionals if he lets his temper get the best of him.
That secret game at the end was surprisingly hype. It felt like it was moving in alow motion so the players had more time to do crazy plays and make it back to the ball in time
7:50 Redington R. McRouge did a wonderfully elaborate victory dance right after his adversary Bluuth Von Cyan had a massive stroke and seizure on the floor. I actualy had quite a good time watching these two go! 👍
I wish I had the balls Red had when it tried to do a front flip onto the table at 7:34 like sure you're throwing that point in the trash but doing a flip is rad as hell you gotta go for it
It’s really cool how they end up almost replicating smashing/defending, one person close to the table and the other person farther away rather than both of them crowding the table
I think you should also reward it for keeping its eyes on the ball (stops rapid head movements). It might also need feet rather than balls, hard to balance with balls on your feet! Something else that could be a good idea is an energy system, moving so erratically like that would expend energy, allow it to learn to be more efficient as the taser method doesn't appear to do much.
They do have an energy system. b2stud specifically mentioned that they retained the trait to move their heads wildly and constantly despite taking an energy hit for doing so.
Being able to save a little bit of information seems to be worth the extra energy expenditure. I mean ... we're basically doing the same thing with _our_ heads. 😅
@@b2stud I think I came off as overly disappointed, I really enjoyed these and laughed my ass off. Would be really interesting to see what would happen if you modeled feet and toes to these guys 👀
I love the minimalist CGI style you have going on; it reminds me of the charming early 3D animations that used to be all over the place, like the Mind's Eye series.
Out of Context AI needs to be a thing (if not already) starting with clips from this of players diving head first into the table, stumbling backwards over the ad boards and somehow returning the ball from the ground... brilliant stuff
i love how realistic the AI is! i used to play table tennis a lot in school as a extra curricular activity and it was always hard to keep myself on my feet! i would constantly fall down and then spasm on the ground and just to save myself i would have to precisely hit the ball with my toes... and then i would continue seizuring on the ground while i see my opponent fail to hit the ball and then join me on the floor and spasm
Nice, but I bet you can't get them to play cricket!
uh huh
Uh oh
@@b2stud Bet.
See you guys in the next video...
Cricket is too dumb, even for AI
Can't wait for professional table tennis players to take a leaf out of the ai's book and glue their hand to the back of their paddle
and walk with balls for feet.
They'd have just a year to perfect the craft, as their hips will wear out
And store movements for their left hand in their neck movements
Better yet, replace their hand with a paddle
@@vinculaomega5283their necks....
Never thought I'd be so enthralled by a red and blue AI playing table tennis
Red Vs. Blu
Me too
I'd legit watch a half hour straight
Never thought I'll enjoy watching two AIs having a seizure while playing tennis
actually!
this is more fun to watch than most other sports
Why isn't there a "AI play table tennis" livestream running 24/7. This is so much fun.
I'd bet channel points on that
I hope he makes a livestream of this lol
I beg. please do this.
Liking this comment because that would be awesome
Actually worth watching, that right there
7:55 going for the insane behind-the-back spin move and then instantly failing is possibly the most human thing ever done by an AI
bro that movement made me laugh
-1000000 aura moment
I just love the fact that the paddles' ai is virtually perfect and the only reason one side can lose is because of the ragdolls' stupidness
I love how sometimes blue immediately falls over and red, being the idiot it is, still manages to throw the round
RED SOLD SO HARD
Blue seems really good at falling over and still clutching up
I was rooting for blue from the jump, but red really gave that one away at the end.
I appreciate the creativity of the Chad move of slapping the ball with the counterweight hand after making good contact with the paddle hand.
I think they should be listening to gabber while they do this😅
like when red had match point, blue fell over, and the red just punched the ball away
9:35 Red was so unbelievably flustered when his opponent made a diving save that he fumbled and hit his own side of the net shortly before fainting of embarrassment.
that back fall was hilarious
That was my reaction too
7:35
The TSN "turning point" right there!
jeez, so dramatic
I love that at 7:35 the red ai just launches itself onto the table at an attempt to hit the ball and isnt even close
Now that's dedication! I think that could happen in real life too!
Red was really the people's champion in this video. At 4:35 he preforms a goddamn scorpion kick to try to save the point, at 7:45 he strikes a pose after winning the point, and at 10:18 he is so sick of Blue's shit that he just slaps the serve out of the air with his hand.
@@imaloony8 we really need this 24/7
he went face first
He’s really just like the rest of us, out here trying his best
11:18 The red AI decided that it wanted to be released from this hell and deliberately smacked the ball down as a show of defiance.
lololololol
lololololol
lololololol
lololololol
4:36 that scorpion kick is incredible
How did he kick the ball?
I was hoping it would have hit the other side, that would have been so cool.
4:47 red really just said "I'm gonna lie down for a bit"
The table tennis playing was so realistic to form. Who doesn't remember seeing the 2012 Olympics where the players waved constantly to the crowd before falling over
and also occasionally kicked the ball
Pretty average play in my opinion
My favorite part of the 2012 tennis olympics was when the tennis players hit the ball with a paddle super glued to their arm while having constant seizures.
And wiggling on floor while breaking more than 1 bone
I just think the AI wasn't trained to limit their victory and anger spasms to movements that don't result in a floor visit. That's more what tennis players do.
7:25
This entire sequence of events just keeps getting more hilarious.
-Red accidentally punches the ball into the shadow realm
-Red attempts to atone for its mistake by doing a sick lunge shot, proceeding to absolutely eat shit and miss completely
-Both players spot a shiny object on the ground and lunge towards it, forgetting about the game entirely
It may or may not be 4am, and I may or may not have started crying from how hard I was giggling at your descriptions, trying not to wake my roommate in the next room over 😂
Red is such a show-off. It's no wonder he lost.
@@Boomblox5896 Red had a schizo freakout

I love the rounds where they use things other than the paddle, because it implies that hit was entirely outside the Aimbot's control
12:07 my boy blue went SWIMMING through the air for that ball
bro was not going to let newton rip his dub away from him
and then red tried to do that and miserably fails
@@AbyssalTheDifficulty fr🤣🤣
The spectators following the ball and turning to each other like they're talking is such a small detail, but I apreciate it very much
I thing it really shows the attention you have to make each video as great as you can. And to that... I tip my hat for you Mr. Banana Fish
4:50 the way Red holds up the paddle while laying on the ground is absolutely hilarious for some reason.
They arent playing baseball silly goose
Tbh that just radiates mood to me
That's probably because of the previously mentioned issues the ai has when facing backwards from the direction its neural network evolved to move relative to. It does look comical though.
Kept it going for a few rallies too!
Yes! Completely agree, was about to make the same comment. Had me laughing so hard. Just love the idea of falling over while playing table tennis and managing to keep the volley going from the ground.
4:23 - I love the celebration from the blue AI when he finally scores.
Yeah I burst out laughing when I saw the vigorous fist pumping. :D
I was just about to say the exact same thing
And he fail on the floor
4:33 love how red manages to kick the ball back onto the table
Never let them know your next move
Blue got point disappointingly.
Is that wrong?
@@youtubeuniversity3638it went over but yeah it sucked that he mosse
4:20 red throws a serious tantrum while blue gets INCREDIBLY FUCKING PUMPED
im fucking crying 😭
10:18 made me crack up laughing lol. Just his confident smack to the side like he was insulted about the previous serve is hilarious.
Then red dies right after
Bro red punching the ball😂
I'm dying 😂🤣
it's s o good lmao
I want to show my appreciation for the animations, background, replays and sound effects that you didn't really need to add
If you give them a sort of "stamina" during training phase, where it uses more stamina to make quick movements, it might encourage slower/more accurate movements as opposed to a hyperactive pelvis.
Yes, like taking into account energy efficiency. This would be the resonable thing to do, but then we wouldnt get the honor to watch this.
Red couldn't keep their calm towards the end and just started punching the ball with their hands out of frustration. That's what I call realism
This deserves it's own channel. Or maybe even a tournament with a limit of training runs for AI.
This is a great idea
9:34 Red couldn't believe the return 🤣
Honestly, I can't either
They look a little distracted.
the maneuver at 7:34 was godlike, truly the next Table Tennis world champion at work
He shows his brilliance again at 7:44, shocking the world with his flipping skills
But of course his superb flipping skills cannot hope to rival his opponent's, as shown from 12:05 to 12:18
I haven’t laughed this hard in a while. Not sure why but them just eating dirt after making a serve is the funniest shit lol.
Same
They're suffering from debilitating seizures and constant pain. I hope that makes you happy.
When the one bot yeeted itself over the board I started crying from laughing so hard.
@@WillyBotsonthat part makes me laugh so hard every time I see it, oh my god

probably no, because the neural network isnt the one actually "playing" the game
@@lietajucemaciatko383 But the determining factor to who wins the game is who falls over first
@@baoxuezhang3300 yeah, but if theyre goven the same amount of training they will preform roughly the same

WE NEED A CONSTANT LIVESTREAM OF THIS
An entire championship 🏆
Yes. A tournament with 32 AI, each one is a different color.
I love the way that the AI ragdoll technically just holds back the already amazing Aimbot paddle
What an abusive marriage

It made me happy reading this. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I nearly pissed myself laughing at the match. Don’t ever stop making these.
Until the AI becomes sentient anyway.
The combination of the perfect aimbit paddles and AI doing random frontflips and kicking the ball off to the side was amazing comedy.
This AI learned to bowl, play ping pong, and be Spiderman.
I bet it will eventually learn how to shoot guns. And when it does, let's hope it won't have any hard feelings for b2 force feeding and tasing it for our entertainment.

It would be interesting to train both AIs independently by letting them play against each other to see if they develop certain strategies/personalities

No, because the trained part of the AI doesn't control the shots. The shots are not controlled by the AI, but the aimbot programmed using a relatively simple equation.

I love this so much I might start implementing some of it's moves into my own games. Gotta learn those small steps and falling over the rails...
Don't forget to perpetually have a seizure
@@humanbeing9946or punching the ball sometimes
or the necessary neck movements
Would’ve been cool to hear your final thoughts after the match. But nice videos and awesome concept and delivery
Yeah, I was hoping for an outro speech too
My thoughts were basically "wtf just happened"
@@b2stud I think I came off as overly disappointed, I really enjoyed these and laughed my ass off. Would be really interesting to see what would happen if you modeled feet and toes to these guys 👀
I love the minimalist CGI style you have going on; it reminds me of the charming early 3D animations that used to be all over the place, like the Mind's Eye series.
I CANT STOP LAUGHING AT THESE PROFESSIONALS PLAY the way they fall and basically have a seizure 😭😭
I love their "tantrum throwing" techniques, wish more athletes would do the same
Yeah.
They throw tantrums when they win, too! :D
Ah yes, the classic "fall over the arena walls backwards" technique. Gets 'em every time
Out of Context AI needs to be a thing (if not already) starting with clips from this of players diving head first into the table, stumbling backwards over the ad boards and somehow returning the ball from the ground... brilliant stuff
I’m so proud of Blue. I was rooting for them all the way 🎉
i love how realistic the AI is! i used to play table tennis a lot in school as a extra curricular activity and it was always hard to keep myself on my feet! i would constantly fall down and then spasm on the ground and just to save myself i would have to precisely hit the ball with my toes... and then i would continue seizuring on the ground while i see my opponent fail to hit the ball and then join me on the floor and spasm
the uppercut play at 7:27
the absolute ingenuity. blue had no chance. bravo, red.
I can't believe red threw an 8-5 lead so hard 😂
9:34 is the best part of the video, Red is so shocked that he didn't score he just falls over
That was...I don't know what I was expecting. That certainly was two AI playing table tennis.
can we just appreciate how much work, maths and physics were put into creating this masterpiece?
