Our main results prove that while reward can express many tasks, there exist instances of each task type that no Markov reward function can capture. We then provide a set of polynomial-time algorithms that construct a reward function which allows…

In our recent paper, published in Nature Human Behaviour, we provide a proof-of-concept demonstration that deep reinforcement learning (RL) can be used to find economic policies that people will vote for by majority in a simple game. The paper thus…

Despite significant effort, current AI systems pale in their understanding of intuitive physics, in comparison to even very young children. In the present work, we address this AI problem, specifically by drawing on the field of developmental psychology. Read More

We develop Perceiver AR, an autoregressive, modality-agnostic architecture which uses cross-attention to map long-range inputs to a small number of latents while also maintaining end-to-end causal masking. Perceiver AR can directly attend to over a hundred thousand tokens, enabling practical…

We came across Zindi – a dedicated partner with complementary goals – who are the largest community of African data scientists and host competitions that focus on solving Africa’s most pressing problems. Our Science team’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I)…
