Watching Civilization bots play against each other was a thing for a while and it was mildly entertaining I guess. Didn't use ungodly amounts of power and hardware though.

My brother and I used to set all bots on n64 smash and bet candy or chores on the winners.

That said, I don't know why I'd need an industrial data center to do what an n64 already did.

This was fun in Smash Ultimate for the switch; if you had amiibos, you could load them in as characters and they'd (supposedly) learn from what you did when playing against them. We used to pit our amiibo characters against each other and treat it like Pokemon battles. It was a good time.

That sounds like an absolute blast!
