Minecraft is the next frontier of Artificial Intelligence.



It's a huge game with numerous mechanics and complex sequences of actions. To teach people how to play Minecraft is a wiki of over 8000 pages. Artificial intelligence is amazing but how effective can it be?



This is the question we'll answer in this article. We will create a bot to attempt one of the most difficult Minecraft problems: finding diamonds. To make welcome to my blog 'll tackle this challenge in randomly generated environments so we won't be able to learn a particular seed.



What we're gonna talk about is not restricted to Minecraft. It can also be used in complex environments. MY CMS will employ two methods to build the backbone of our intelligent agent.



Before we can train an agent, we must first be aware of how the environment interacts with it. Let's begin by creating a scripted bot, so that we can become familiar with the syntax. We'll use MineRL, a wonderful library that lets you build AI applications in Minecraft.



Google Colab has the code for this article. It is a simplified and refined version of the outstanding notebooks designed by the organizers of the MineRL 2021 competition (MIT License).
