Hey folks! Today's video offers analysis on DeepMind's AlphaStar, the first artificial intelligence to defeat a professional player at StarCraft II.

Production Notes:
-- Note that AlphaStar *does* spam actions to a certain extent, per this response from Oriol Vinyals in a Reddit AMA: "Re. 2: When we see things like high APMs, or misclicks, it may be from imitation indeed. In fact, we often see very spammy behavior of certain actions for the agents (spamming move commands, microing probes to mine unnecessarily, or flickering the camera during early game)."
