From autonomous cars to video games, reinforcement learning (machine learning through interaction with environments) can have an important impact. That may feel especially true, for example, when ...

Let’s look at how RL agents are trained to deal with ambiguity, and it may provide a blueprint of leadership lessons to ...

What if the very techniques we rely on to make AI smarter are actually holding it back? A new study has sent shockwaves through the AI community by challenging the long-held belief that reinforcement ...

Progress in self-­driving cars and other forms of automation will slow dramatically unless machines can hone skills through experience. Inside a simple computer simulation, a group of self-driving ...

The bird has never gotten much credit for being intelligent. But the reinforcement learning powering the world’s most advanced AI systems is far more pigeon than human. In 1943, while the world’s ...
