AI Plays Minecraft Forever (and dies)

and the universe said I love you. What is the goal of minecraft? Minecraft has no explicit goals, no last level, and no score to maximize. It is open ended. Open endedness is a feature of human intelligence that lets us explore, invent, and play forever. It is very difficult to get machine intelligences to do the same. Here is my attempt to get mindcraft bots to behave this way by using LLMs to make decisions endlessly and follow open ended goals, as well as more concrete, finite goals. Watch andy wander around aimlessly and craft shears twice. Labyrinthine is my second favorite MC song after aria math. ~My Stuff~ Mindcraft code: github.com/kolbytn/mindcraft My patreon: www.patreon.com/emergentgarden Discord: discord.gg/ZsrAAByEnr My twitter: twitter.com/max_romana Kolby's twitter (project owner): twitter.com/kolbytn ~References~ Upgraded survival build:    • I Transformed Minecraft Into The ULTI...   Skyblock:    • Minecraft- SkyBlock [1] ALL ALONE!!!   Minecraft in Minecraft:    • I made Minecraft in Minecraft with re...   Open Endedness is essential for superhuman intelligence: arxiv.org/abs/2406.04268 AI hacks reward: openai.com/index/faulty-reward-functions/ POET: arxiv.org/abs/1901.01753 OMNI-EPIC: arxiv.org/abs/2405.15568 Lenia:    • Lenia: Expanded Universe 1080p   Karl Sims virtual creatures:    • Karl Sims - Evolved Virtual Creatures...   "I am jack black" - steve Timestamps (0:00) the end is never the end (5:15) Actions and Goals (10:04) Survive Forever (18:22) Build Forever 𒋨 𒋨 𒋨
