Chief Cook Cheats At Pong

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Tuesday, 25 of November , 2008 at 2:31 am

First omelettes. Now pong. Next, THE WORLD! Or, you know, something. Looks like EPFL’s learning robot has been taught how to play pong, complete with distractions and witty banter. Personally, I’d be distracted enough just because I was playing pong with a robot, not to mention one that was insulting me. It would truly be an honor to be defeated and called a loser by this bot… At least for the first few times. After that, I won’t be held responsible for my actions.
