Agents performing "curious" exploration by setting random abstract goals! We present a simple but effective method for deep exploration of reinforcement learning (RL) agents that we call random latent exploration (RLE). Typical RL gents explore by: ⚔️ Noise-based exploration,

i asked gpt4.5 what’s a deep truth that most people are not aware of and then i kept asking 1. discomfort isn't just inevitable; it's essential. chase friction relentlessly.

The AI-Co Scientist paper dropped! The Google AI -Co Scientist is a Multi-Agent System build with Google DeepMind Gemini 2.0 designed to generate scientific hypotheses through generate, debate, and evolve approach combining specialized agents and reasoning. The 80 page long paper

The mind-blowing AI model that led me to make the claim below was a demo of Google AI co-scientist! It’s still a work in progress & I hope to test it in a few weeks-but its potential is already crystal clear & I believe it truly will be a game changer for scientific progress!

This paper introduces the AI co-scientist. It's a multi-agent system designed to aid scientists in generating novel hypotheses and planning experiments. → The AI co-scientist uses specialized agents for different tasks. → These agents include Generation, Reflection, and

This is a great paper from my friend Rahul’s lab at @Cambridge. It turns out aspirin strengthens our immune system soldiers (T cells) against cancer and prevents metastasis-albeit indirectly, through its action on a platelet-derived factor. A really cool mechanism!

In the physical world, almost all information is transmitted through traveling waves -- why should it be any different in your neural network? Super excited to share recent work with the brilliant Mozes Jacobs: "Traveling Waves Integrate Spatial Information Through Time" 1/14

Vandaag verscheen mijn antwoord op onderstaande stukken in Mare die weer een reactie waren op een opiniestuk van mij. Thema: sociale onveiligheid op universiteiten door heftige Pro-Palestina protesten. Zie: mareonline.nl/opinie/waarhei…

HARP is on Biorxiv! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. We developed a high-throughput functional screening platform for protease inhibitory nanobody discovery via yeast ER sequestration and screening. We used to HARP to isolate low nM inhibitors against TEVp and KLK6 for the first time.

In general, #robots need to learn how to act while existing in a world with other agents. In this lecture, I cover the foundations of #multiagent #reinforcementlearning (MARL) and connect this to the recent work on reinforcement learning from human feedback (#RLHF).

The more I learn about the semiconductor supply chain, the more implausible it all seems. There’s a small island vulnerable to invasion where all the chips are made? And the machines to make them all come from one firm in the Netherlands? Using lenses made by one firm in Germany?

Honored to share a major thread of my PhD research, out now in PNAS. We address a core issue with how models are used for scientific discovery. Models are so important that they define the entire scientific process... 1/n

I am alarmed by the proposed cuts to U.S. funding for basic research, and the impact this would have for U.S. competitiveness in AI and other areas. Funding research that is openly shared benefits the whole world, but the nation it benefits most is the one where the research is
