AI beats top racers at Gran Turismo – without cheating
An artificial intelligence can beat the best human players at the racing video game Gran Turismo 7 using only the images and information that players can see.
In 2022, researchers at Sony created GT Sophy, a driving AI that could beat the best human players at Gran Turismo Sport, a previous version of the game. However, the AI had access to information that human players didn’t, such as real-time information of other cars and the layout of the racetrack beyond the driver’s view.
