When I say &#8220;met&#8221;, I mean we got on a voice chat together on Discord. The meeting went well, and we were able to discuss a lot. Especially, the fact that all three of us have zero experience with Unity or AI\/ML. This means, we all have some studying to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So pretty much, for the past two weeks, I have been looking up and studying whatever resources I could find for various, various topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At first, before we were assigned to a specific project, I sought out introductory material in Unity and TensorFlow. It felt like taking two more classes this semester in itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had no idea if I was wasting my time or not. I knew most of the projects I requested had to do with machine learning (ML), and some required Unity. So, I was confident in my choices to learn a broad amount of introductory information about these topics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I did spent 5+ hours watching a course on TensorFlow. And even though we won&#8217;t be using TensorFlow directly in our projects, I really enjoyed what I learned in those 5+ hours. I&#8217;m not even done with the course (barely halfway). I&#8217;m also pretty happy about what I learned about TensorFlow so far, so I definitely want to finish that course later. I feel that what I learned is already useful for me going into this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step is to learn Unity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This must be the most exciting, and most difficult technology to learn for this project. My mind is already starting to think about future game ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, learn.unity.com has been a huge resource to learning Unity. What better resource than from the source, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, there are tons of guides on YouTube that give us some good ideas on how to approach this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, back to YouTube.
