Would people be ok with renaming it "I Can't Believe It's Not Intelligence! ®"

I have a reinforcement learning joke, but I'm sure it will be lost on the critics.

I have an imitation learning joke, but not sure it is the reason why you laugh.

UCI researchers launch first-of-its-kind #coronavirus statistics portal: Site provides comparisons between OC & neighboring counties. More: bit.ly/3adtl3V

There is no magical benchmark that experiments must be run against in order to be acceptable.

Interested in hearing about the theoretical foundations of RL from a multidisciplinary perspective (CS, control, stats, OR)? If so, join us at the (all virtual) RL Theory Bootcamp at the Simons Institute next week. Lectures in the morning and the afternoon ==>

This. Our top conferences are "captive regulators" of noteworthy research, and Big ML has subtly shifted their focus to experiments that have low scientific value, high environmental footprint, and — significantly — only they can run. #demeritNeurIPS

Come join us tomorrow (Mon) for the #NeurIPS2021 Meaning in Context workshop! We aim to advance human-machine communication by understanding how pragmatic reasoning works in humans and how it can inform AI website: mic-workshop.github.io NeurIPS link: neurips.cc/virtual/2021/w…

Policy Space Response Oracles (PSRO) mixes over a population of deep RL policies to approximate a Nash equilibrium, but exploitability can increase from one iteration to the next. We introduce Anytime PSRO which does not increase exploitability. Arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2201.07700

We (Barbara Engelhardt, Naila Murray and I) are proud to announce the creation of a Journal-to-Conference track, in collaboration with JMLR and conferences NeurIPS 2022, ICLR 2023 and ICML 2023! neurips.cc/public/Journal… iclr.cc/public/Journal… icml.cc/public/Journal…

Very excited for the 2022 edition of the #neurips Deep RL workshop! A few fun changes, see below. Also, submission deadline: Sep 22

📣 Very excited to announce our in-person #NeurIPS2022 workshop on Information-Theoretic Principles in Cognitive Systems! Check out our lineup of invited speakers and CFP, submit short papers by September 19 sites.google.com/view/infocog-n… #InfoCog2022 NeurIPS Conference

The deadline for our #NeurIPS2022 InfoCog workshop is approaching soon [updated 🗓️: Sep 22]. We expect to have some funding to support a few selected presenters of accepted papers, and a special issue of Open Mind associated with the workshop! More info 👇 sites.google.com/view/infocog-n…
