A robot with human level artificial intelligence is a robot that can do any human task. It can drive a car, fly a plane, cook in a restaurant, play videogames, play boardgames, etc. Building a robot that can do any human task is the holy grail of Artificial Intelligence.

This video is silent because I wanted the viewers to see the thoughts of the robot while playing the game. The robot's conscious is the voice in his head that gives instructions or information. This conscious allows the robot to play the game in an intelligent manner.

This video depicts the robot playing golf. He knows that he is playing golf on a videogame and the controller controls the character in the game. The robot can also play real golf in the real world, but that video is for another day.

During the game, lessons from teachers activate in the robot's conscious. For example, at the beginning the robot's conscious give instructions to plan his linear strokes. Next, he uses golf knowledge of what clubs to use for each stroke. During each stroke, the robot is also calculating on how hard to hit the ball to get it to a destination location.

The skill to play golf is primarily experience. The robot has to practice hitting balls repeatedly and store pathways in memory to get a ball from the current location to a destination location.

The robot can play "any" golf course and play golf using "any" media -- he can play golf in a videogame or play golf in the real world. The instructions to play golf in a videogame is very similar to playing real golf. The only major difference is the motor functions of the robot. In a videogame the robot has to move it's hands to control a character in the videogame. In real life, the robot has to move his entire body to play golf. However, the instructions of rules, objectives and so forth related to golf are virtually identical for both media types.
