Why is this more impressive?

It's not just shooting at static monsters in an empty room, this will go after monsters, make decisions about prioritizing health, changing goals, and finish the level, etc. It's not unique, it's just more impressive than the demo they're using.

Their demo could also change goals, e.g. avoid monsters instead of shooting them, by changing some variable. I'm sure that could also be used to change goals.

But it doesn’t. That is why that other person is claiming their demo is more impressive.

What you are saying is like me losing 13kg is as impressive as having the potential to do so if only I would stop eating ice cream and too many snacks every day.

You're confusing demo with technology.

The potential to lose weight, in this context, is the original post because there was potential but it wasn't shown

This commenter is the person who lost 13kg.

The technology is not different but the demonstration is more impressive
