Learn Before
Reinforcement Learning Analogy - Video Games
Video games often involve completing levels, with increasing difficulty as you go through the game. In each level, you go in completely blind and make decisions that will either lead to you passing that level or failing. If you fail, you will now understand more about that particular level that will influence your decisions when you retry. In other words, you will understand what not to do, and try another approach. If you pass, you will understand what to do in future levels. This process is repeated until success. This is very similar to how reinforcement learning works. Rewards are given for successes, indicating that the decision(s) made are correct and should be learned for future use. Penalties are given for a failure, indicating that the decision(s) made should not be retried and instead a new approach should be used.

A team is developing a program to play a complex board game against human opponents. The program has no pre-existing data of past games to learn from. Instead, it is designed to learn by playing against itself repeatedly. After each game, the program receives a positive signal if it wins and a negative signal if it loses. Over time, it is expected to discover winning strategies on its own. Which of the following statements best analyzes why this learning approach is suitable for this task?
