Choblin(@choblin29):🚨EXCLUSIVE: David Silver is assembling an absurd reinforcement learning team at Ineffable Intelligence. Six new “cofounders,” including four ex-DeepMind researchers. AlphaStar RL lead Junhyuk Oh will lead RL, Wojciech Czarnecki will run science, and former InstaDeep research chief Alexandre Laterre will lead research engineering. The really interesting hire is Oh: he was among the first researchers to use AI to discover new reinforcement learning algorithms. Ineffable wants to build a “superlearner” that discovers knowledge from its own experience instead of relying on human-generated data. This is starting to look like Silver rebuilding a team around the exact bet he thinks can get to superintelligence.
