Whether it’s an enemy ambush or a rare loot drop, the element of surprise keeps players on their toes. But too much randomness can feel unfair, while too little can make a game predictable and boring. Enter the world of probability-driven game design, a method that introduces structured uncertainty into gameplay.

New York City is in a period of explosive growth in data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning. With Silicon Valley as the AI capital of the West Coast, New York City dominates the eastern United States. According to research compiled by Bloomberg, for artificial intelligence and machine learning jobs, New York City is outpacing San Francisco with 11.6 percent of job postings on indeed.com compared to San Francisco’s 9.6 percent. New York is also home to more than 7,000 startups, hundreds of which are standouts in the field of AI and machine learning. The Bloomberg report concludes that while AI and machine learning jobs have doubled since 2015, there aren’t enough viable candidates to fill open positions.
