Indianapolis 500 Legends

Indianapolis 500 Legends is a racing game recounting the history of the Indianapolis 500. Players take on the roles of various famous racers between 1961 and 1971, completing tasks such as overtaking a specified number of cars or qualifying under a set time. Some missions will change the course of history, such as guiding Parnelli Jones to victory in 1967 when historically, in the 197th lap, a faulty bearing ground his car to a halt. The option will also be given to race the full 200 laps.[1] Players are also able to unlock three different '500' racers as they complete their missions under Mission Mode. Some of the missions are: 'epic', 'pit stop', 'race', 'battle', 'qualify', 'dodge' and 'pass'.

gollark: And it clearly isn't what we might stereotypically think of an AI as, since it isn't agenty and doesn't even have writable memory.
gollark: There are also a lot of things it can't do, like many other reasoning tasks, anything not expressible as text, and a lot of things requiring world modeling. But I don't know if that means it isn't "thinking".
gollark: I don't know if it can "think" because that's quite poorly defined. I do know that it can do some amount of logical and common-sense reasoning and has very good language abilities.
gollark: <@267332760048238593> "Manages charts"?
gollark: This is also "behavior".
