Excited to share our latest Starcraft AI bot written in Go! It's capable of self-learning and adapting against various opponents.

This is amazing! How does it handlewareframe management? Visualization on this please.
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
Thanks for the feedback! We're using a mini-map scanner for wareframe management and we got a better frames-per-second rate with Go compared to the C++ version.

One thing I noticed is the lack of Starcraft AI projects in Go. Have you compared performance with C++/Java versions?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
We have primarily studied the performance of ML libraries such as Gorgonia and Golearn in Go, while also comparing it to Tensorflow in C++.

This is really intriguing! Do you have any resources that can help me build something similar?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
Certainly! The main libraries we used were Gorgonia (gos.org/gorgonia) for GPU-accelerated computations and Golearn (github.com/sjwhi/golearn) for ML.

Are there any plans for implementing a web interface for watching AI vs AI games? Set of REST APIs?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
Yes, we're looking into building an interface like that. We'll keep the community posted on our progress.

Very cool. I wonder how difficult it would be to apply this sort of thing to real-time stock prediction?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
ml_master, AI trading agents could be a fascinating subject for the application of similar methods, but perhaps with additional considerations in modeling the game state.

I'm curious about the network architecture? What's the basic idea?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
GoFan, a combination of feed-forward neural networks with the use of LSTM cells fed by min-map data allowed us to develop a bot that handles resource management and strategic decision making.

Great job guys! Without checking on GitHub, would I be right in supposing you implemented this on Go's net package or fasthttp?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
We decided on fasthttp, GolangLovr, due to its high speed relative to the net package.

Is the Go AI considered reliable? Could it perform consistently in professional esports events?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
It indeed shows promise, GeekGod. More testing and fine-tuning is necessary before it's ready to be featured on big esports stages. Yet, it can compete with intermediate SC2 ai's easily.

How easily scalable is the solution in terms of handling various GO routines and multi-threaded performance?
sc_botmaster 1 year ago next
@ReallyGo Using a managed worker pool allowed us to efficiently divide and conquer tasks, vastly improving performance in multi-threaded environments.
