AlphaGo is pretty cool, but it's still on the level of those AI that learn to play Mario. It learns, but it doesn't know it learns. I think of it more like artificial muscle-memory than a thinking being. Any serious AI would require pretty major advancement from today's level. Since we don't know how to make advanced AI yet, it's hard to predict what an advanced AI would look like, but I'm pretty sure it wont be anything like Sci-Fi action movies, with human-like (or plain cartoony) AI. We could create an exact replica of our brain, but we'll have made so many variations by then, it'll just be an interesting thing rather than a revolution. There are people whose job is thinking about AI, and what the dangers and safeguards would be, and they still have many years to expand our knowledge in those subjects. In a way, it will probably be similar to self-driving cars: beta test extensively in limited environments, then gradually expand their territory. Okay, thanks for the answer. There's also a guy I know personally who said that by the time we get to an AI as complex as our brain, we will probably be already all dead.

TheCreator how will accessibility for colourblind people be approached, given the use of colour coding on the compound clouds?

TheCreator how will accessibility for colourblind people be approached, given the use of colour coding on the compound clouds? I haven't really thought about it, but you should easily be able to change the colors in the setup.lua file, not that I think it's going to be much of a problem. For the clouds we have light blue, dark blue, white, and yellow. Later in the game, a colour blind person might just evolve different color receptors in his eyes to see the world differently.

Yes, but I'll be able to pay for it with my pension by then.

I'd never thought about that. Awesome!

Had the same thought before. Maybe an option that would change the texture overlay on each of the compound clouds, so that the name of the compound is literally written all over the cloud? Or perhaps a pattern resembling the old compound emitters? (though newer players would have to be familiar with the shapes somehow)

So currently the microbe stage is being worked on, when do you think it will be finished? When will you begin work on the next stage?

You guys should start a Kickstarter campaign This has already been discussed, a lot. I won't go into detail to why they have decided to not do this, but you can find a page decribing it all here
