I appreciate the charm you've added to the environment, like the other little fishies sliding, on the gondola, and lil lights in the trees

You and Dingus Labs are the most fun I've had watching AI in a long while.

The absolute madlad went out of his way to model and *_animate_* an entire miniature ski resort, ostensibly just because he can, when an undecorated tilted plane would have been mechanically sufficient. What a legend.

I've never seen B2 and Code bullet in the same room, just saying this would explain the giant gap in code bullet's upload schedule

knowing he will make more videos on this particular subject is quite exciting

As a snowboarder who has taught multiple beginners, it was heartwarming to see the AI struggle, act, and even crash in a similar way as a beginner. Love your work!

Dude i love these types of videos. Awesome videos! Keep up the great work

This channel is so underrated for the quality... thank you!!!!

I love this channel! The humorous gags and running jokes, the skill and effort put into the coding and production of the videos, and the nostalgic reminder of a simple time playing Sumotori Dreams and Blockland as a kid made this video and this channel so endearing to me.

I love these AI ragdoll videos so much 😂 Something I think would have helped a lot is if you added reward for the distance is goes down the hill, and air time (greater than 0.5 seconds), rather than just the time is stays on the board and how straight it goes. Maybe even hitting a snowman too lmao. Can’t wait for the next one!

that was a great explanation of the vector math in a comprehensible (for some) and well simplified way, the flailing calc 3 student in me appreciates it greatly

As a snowboarder and someone who used to teach it, this was quite an interesting video. In the beginning it seemed that the ai had begun to use its heal edge to control the board which is one of the first things we teach to people learning! I would have liked to see you try to give rewards for it using and switching between edges the same way we snowboarders go down the hill.

the animation is getting more unhinged per video and i love it

These videos are what i use to keep myself going in my cs math degree. They bring such joy

If there’s anything I’d love to see iterated it’d be this one. There’s something so satisfying in seeing snowboarding work. So much potential, race them, little obstacles/moguls, teach them to jump, or even do rail or box. I think it’s neat

Another important thing in snowboarding is the edge of the board digs in and provides a lot of resistive force, which is where the classic S-shaped carving comes from. It ensures a central line is followed while maintaining the grip on a single edge. Beginner boards have a shallow bowl shape from front to back, which is easier to learn on, but makes it easier to slide and spin, which can lead to edge catching. More advanced boards actually arch upwards in the middle and provide two contact points right before the rounded ends of the board. This enables easier forward-only travel by reducing (but not eliminating) the possibility of edge bite, allowing faster, straighter riding. Perhaps adding these variables might help your guys from spinning out and losing the board out from under them :)

Right now you're training me to keep watching your vids by boosting my serotonin with the sphere guys on the ski lifts 🥺

I'm incredibly sick right now and getting to watch this goofball do his thing for a while really cheered me up, thanks man. I'd support you on patreon if I wasn't a super broke college student

Love how these videos are still educational, even though they have become progressively more insane with the commentary. 10/10 wouldn’t change it for the world

Calling yourself "Code Arrow" at the beginning was funnier to me than it should have been.

Much as you seem to think that this content was somehow lacking because of how simple (or 'simple', I suppose I should say) it is, I absolutely loved it. Was actually really cool to see the little AI man start to understand snowboarding and nearly make it to the bottom a few times!

This is the only kind of AI related content I feel safe with knowing exists. This is pure and good.

I always love seeing someone snowboard for the first time! This is exactly what it felt like learning it all that time ago.

I've only been snowboarding a couple of times. I have so much empathy for that ragdoll.

These videos are just pure genius! Makes me want to try deep reinforcement learning every time. Then I realize how big of a nightmare RL actually is all over again =D

I guess you could reward him for airtime and for taking out snowmen while still remaining on the board.

11:35 that punch looked deliberate and personal 😂

I like this one in particular because the extra steps in modeling the contact point with the ground. Think with regular videos the AI flounders because it has boxes for feet. Maybe having another collision box for twos would greatly improve balance

You are my favorite coder channel, you satisfy my yearning of witnessing silly little guy

We wanna hear a dramatic tale of how the reward system literally cost blood and sweat. How everyone around you started being concerned about you: your dog, your wife, your wife's boyfriend. And how they all came together to support you and rehabilitate you so that you could overcome these challenges turn into a better person.

This one definitely needs a folllow-up. Would really like to see the AI try a slalom course.

Super cool! I hope we see more progress with the Bloons AI.

excellent video. seems like you already have good ideas of how to spice up this snowboarding excursion. more catapults please

Something that I imagine for an AI like this is an input for how close the board is to the nearest ground surface! I think it's eating shit every time it leaves the ground because it doesn't know it's left the ground! Rather than bracing for the landing like a snowboarder would, it's just doing the same thing it would do if it was moving straight! Love this video tho, the aesthetics of the snowy resort are super cozy!

I love the complicated stuff yet I never get it and that close eye test was a cool representation of how those lines work

Feels like we're on the brink of having a full-on AI PPOlympics.

This channel is like a lawful good Code Bullet and I love it

It's impressive that you were able to so accurately model the physics of the edges and so we saw the ragdoll fall in realistic ways so familiar to snowboarders like catching a downhill edge. I think it would be worthwhile to revisit this and try to incentivize carving and turning, maybe by making some moguls or an obstacle course. Also I think it would add a lot if you added overly gruesome sound effects when they fall and hit things, like foley in movies.

IDK what I was expecting but you exceeded all my expectations

I stayed awake for this. 10 out of 10

These are so facinating to watch.

4:34 the ai just started learning and I'm like "0h" Is he titling the phases of ai learning or... oh.

I love that series

I like how you've become so confident. Just don't let it overcome you in the future. This is kind of serious though. I love you lol

This is exactly how it was for me learning snowboard. Fall back, fall forward, fall to the side, fall to th eother side, die, hurt your hands, hurt your back, hurt you but... and repet...

As a to-be engineering student, I appreciate your explanations of the vector maths.

"what else do you guys want??" Literally everything you listed

OMG It's code arrow, legendary creator of Flappy Avian-like Creature in goofy game engines

About half an hour to go as I type this, looking forward to it!

I love that the weight calculation isn't dynamic and the board takes off at full speed once the ai falls off

Since you mentioned that you aren't just making one video in this series, a few suggestions: 1) I think the penalty for horizontal movement is a mistake. For one, the speed reward should get the AI going fast regardless, and meanwhile avoiding all horizontal movement both reduces how realistic the snowboarding is and limits the use of your very clever snowboard design. 2) I saw the discussion of it learning to bend its knees, so I figured I'd suggest a solution other than simply telling the AI to bend its knees. If you intend to reward it for doing stunts, by, say, heavily rewarding airtime, might I suggest giving it a way to detect the angle of its board and rewarding it for keeping the board at as flat an angle as possible in the air? That should both help it figure out how to land, at least eventually, and help it learn skills like bending your knees not as a reaction to a direct instruction but as the most efficient way to stabilize the board. It won't be perfect, but I think it'll give it enough info to get it going the right direction.

I find it funny how in order to keep going in a straight line, it just moves its legs to compensate instead of trying to keep its center of mass over the board, which causes quite a few wipeouts XD
