Nature article – Artificial intelligence finds surprising patterns in Earth’s biological mass extinctions

December 09, 2020 ResearchTechnical blogs

The idea that mass extinctions allow many new types of species to evolve is a central concept in evolution, but a new study using artificial intelligence to examine the fossil record finds this is rarely true.

Learning in Badger experts improves with episodic memory

October 23, 2020 ResearchTechnical blogs

AI agents often operate in partially observable environments, where only part of the environment state is visible at any given time. An agent in such an environment needs memory to compute effective actions from the history of its actions.

Trainability of Badger – Why is Badger so hard to train?

To understand why Badger is hard to train, we need to understand first how Badger learns, using a toy task. We try to understand the plateaus, what happens during this period, and why the plateaus are there.

GoodAI’s ToyArchitecture published in PLOS ONE

Research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) has focused mostly on two extremes: either on small improvements in narrow AI domains, or on universal theoretical frameworks which are often uncomputable, or lack practical implementations.
