Knowledge Representation and Games

• When I started programming (before I did AI), the Profs said representing the data is of paramount importance.
• So, for games, you need to represent the data correctly.
• However, KR is a bit more than this.
• What knowledge does a game need?
• That of course depends on the game, but you can certainly represent symbols and then use them to reason.
• If the agent needs to figure out how to do things, the richer that knowledge, the more it will be able to do.
• This knowledge doesn't have to be perfect, but more knowledge makes the agent more intelligent.
