AI running on the Microbee - zbfairlane - 15-07-2026 Hi all, With all of the talk about AI lately, I wanted to prove that machine learning was not a new concept. My question, can I build a learning algorithm on 40 year old hardware (emulated). It started out with a perceptron, which was a little underwhelming.  Then I settled on build a maze solver. A simple problem, the bee needs to find the exit. with no prior knowledge of its map, the bee uses Q-learning to learn the pathway to the exit. I have programmed imperfection into this so it always will choose to explore a little even if it has mastered the map.  I have wasted a lot of time on this, and it works, so i would love to share. If anyone would like to try it out the code is in the .txt down below the images, or if someone want to tell me how to get cp/m tools working on my mac where I wrote this I'll be happy to share the .mwb file.  I am especially interested in seeing this run on actual old hardware, though its written for premium 512 becuase it uses HIRES2. RE: AI running on the Microbee - ChickenMan - 16-07-2026 Thanks for that, I will give it a run tomorrow. RE: AI running on the Microbee - Graham72 - 16-07-2026     Good one. It runs on my vibecoded emulator. I exported the .mwb and also ran it in UBEE512. I have emailed the .mwb to CM. cheers g RE: AI running on the Microbee - ChickenMan - 16-07-2026 Thanks, yes looking it even runs in Nanowasp     RE: AI running on the Microbee - zbfairlane - 16-07-2026 Thank you for sending those nice screenshots! I am very happy to see that. I will be giving it a run on my premium plus soon. RE: AI running on the Microbee - Graham72 - 31-07-2026 an amended version 12x12 grid and some code revision. RE: AI running on the Microbee - zbfairlane - 03-08-2026 It looks pretty good with the bigger map, and the auto run adds a different touch, It given me some more ideas.
