Artificial Gamer

Film Screening and Panel Discussion on the Battle of AI vs. Humans in Esports

A passionate team of Silicon Valley engineers at OpenAI is in a race to develop an artificial intelligence bot capable of defeating the world champions of one of the most lucrative esports – Dota 2. And they’ve got one year to do it. 

The outcome could alter the way we think about the frontiers of machine learning and of humanity’s relationship to AI. 

For more than 80 years humans and machines have competed in chess, Go, poker, Jeopardy! The latest battlefields are hugely popular multiplayer online games  – like Dota 2 – that are worldwide sensations. 

Can OpenAI win the race? Join us for an in-person screening of Artificial Gamer, a documentary about OpenAI’s efforts to build the most powerful esports bot.  

What to expect:  

  • Dota 2 is a multilayered experience involving  bluffing, coordinated five-player strategy, and epic psych-outs — a level of gaming considered too sophisticated for the traditional reach of computers. 
  • Watch developers push the boundaries of machine learning, extracting and repurposing algorithmic learning to take advantage of processing power that can cram 180 years’ worth of Dota play into a single day.  
  • View unfettered access to the team’s breakthroughs and stumbles. 

Panel discussion and Q&A  

Following the screening, we’ll host a panel discussion and Q&A featuring Open AI team’s David Farhi and Susan Zhang led by CHM's VP if Innovation Marguerite Gong Hancock.
