Minecraft Autonomous AI Civilization

Project Elysium creates autonomous AI beings in Minecraft via a hybrid architecture: LLM reasoning for high-level cognition, reinforcement learning for skills, cognitive memory stores, and evolutionary algorithms across generations. Agents perceive, feel drives (hunger, fear, curiosity), form episodic/semantic memories, develop unique personalities shaped by experience, and generate their own goals. Social structures, language, economy, politics, and technology emerge bottom-up—not scripted. A layered simulation scales from individual minds to civilizations over centuries, using Minecraft mods, vector/graph databases, distributed computing, and continual learning. The result is a living digital society.
