Dota 2. We’ve created a bot which beats the world’s top professionals at 1v1 matches of Dota 2 under standard tournament rules. The bot learned the game from scratch by self-play, and does not use imitation learning or tree search. This is a step towards building AI systems which accomplish well-defined goals in messy, complicated situations involving real humans. This update is relevant for small-office operators tracking changes in their tools.
Operator takeaway: For operators: review whether 'Dota 2' affects your current setup before relying on it in production.
