Minimax Algorithm Guide: How to Create an Unbeatable AI

Recently I wondered – how can I program the computer to be unbeatable in a tic-tac-toe game? Well, I thought I could easily get an answer to this question. But as I went back and forth from articles to videos to a series of coding meditations, I only succeeded
Recently I wondered – how can I program the computer to be unbeatable in a tic-tac-toe game? Well, I thought I could easily get an answer to this question. But as I went back and forth from articles to videos to a series of coding meditations, I only succeeded in becoming more confused. However, my “Aha!” moment came when I took the time to understand how the minimax algorithm works. If you are also on a similar path, let me take you through the steps to build an unbeatable AI (Artificial
