    Furthermore, at the Tokyo Dome event, there was a demonstration of a Master Duel A.I. system:

    “This is an A.I. system that plays Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel. Its programming doesn’t consist only of moves, it’s also an A.I. that makes considerations, choices and moves.”
    “Konami’s trial A.I.
    -Learns from over 100000 Duels
    -Defeats the company’s active Duelists
    >>>
    Plays Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel”

    “Decks used for learning”
    “Has learned how to use “Dark Magician” and “Blue-Eyes White Dragon” Decks. You can Duel with the A.I. using either of these Decks in this booth.”

    “How the MDAI system looks”
    “You can visualize how the A.I. plays. You can understand how the A.I. is thinking.”
    Top left: “A.I. Duel operations”
    Bottom left: “Win odds from the A.I.’s perspective”
    Top right: “Prediction of set cards.
    Middle: “Card being predicted”
    Bottom right: “A.I.’s thinking: Among the currently available moves, the ones that have a high value are displayed with a percentage”

    There is no information about this system being deployed to Master Duel at this time, and this mostly seems to be for entertainment purposes for those attending the event. Or, you could start panicking the next time you lose to a DM or BEWD Deck in Ranked.

        No absolutely not! I’m against anyone using AI in anything! I have now lost all complete hope in Konami rn. Might as well just stick to LOD(s) TvT

    2. Weavil on February 3, 2024 12:14 pm

      How measly but the game has hooked the whales so no need to be generous.

    3. Danielle on February 3, 2024 12:52 pm

      Wtf? Kazuki takahashi died just so you could punish him. And deteriorate the master duel game with AI functions while you’re at it 🤦‍♀️ smh!

        AI is inevitable

        are you against any kind of machine opponent a game makes you play against, because all of them run on some kind of algorithm.

        It’s just so happens that this peculiar algorithm is trained based on duels, and may give specific performance which is better or worse than other algorithms.

      So we can get better bot opponents now instead of them having a sucky deck?
      Hope it also pilots peeps who leaves mid-duel so i can really finish my comboe for the OTK unlikr tjose who leave before the finishing blow.

      Good to see them finding new and innovative ways to use AI. Can’t wait for the inevitable AI renaissance, we’re kinda already there.

    6. Dia on February 3, 2024 2:17 pm

      Are people actually complaining about AI used for NPC AI (that word existed before 2023) that’s actually hilarious. That’s literally one of the ethical uses for it in gaming with no actual real drawback.

    7. FGO on February 3, 2024 2:53 pm

      AI/bot for duel has been exists since ygopro era ffs, pls stop whining guys

    8. Darkus on February 3, 2024 3:26 pm
