Get the AI here: https://github.com/nneonneo/2048-ai (README.md) AI for the 2048 game ( http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ ). This uses expectimax optimization, along with a highly-efficient bitboard representation to search upwards of 10 million moves per second on recent hardware. Heuristics used include bonuses for empty squares and bonuses for placing large values near edges and corners. Building on Unix/Linux/OS X Execute ./configure make in a terminal. Any relatively recent C++ compiler should be able to build the output. Note that you don't do `make install`; this program is meant to be run from this directory. Building on Windows You have a few options, depending on what you have installed. - Pure Cygwin: follow the Unix/Linux/OS X instructions above. The resulting DLL can *only* be used with Cygwin programs, so to run the browser control version, you must use the Cygwin Python (not the python.org Python). For step-by-step instructions, courtesy Tamas Szell (@matukaa), see[this document ( https://github.com/nneonneo/2048-ai/wiki/CygwinStepByStep.pdf ). - Cygwin with MinGW: run CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ CXXFLAGS='-static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc -D_WINDLL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1' ./configure ; make in a MinGW or Cygwin shell to build. The resultant DLL can be used with non-Cygwin programs. - Visual Studio: open a Visual Studio command prompt, `cd` to the 2048-ai directory, and run `make-msvc.bat`. Running the command-line version Run `bin/2048` if you want to see the AI by itself in action. Running the browser-control version Install[Remote Control for Firefox ( https://github.com/nneonneo/FF-Remote-Control/raw/V_1.2/remote_control-1.2-fx.xpi ). Open up the [2048 game](http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/) or any compatible clone and start remote control. Run `2048.py` and watch the game! I ran the browser version on a mac with Firefox and the latest version of the game. Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/fredghostkyle
