How robust is this?

Isn't something like finding dimonds in minecraft something that old-school AI could already do decently?

Those were trained on human play. This had to figure it out from scratch.

Ah, is this full RL?

I was reading something about LLMs earlier and was thinking that LLMs could probably write a simple case based script for controlling a player, that could accive a decent success rate.

Yes, it's RL from scratch and sparse rewards
