How can we rigorously investigate the common-sense capabilities of agentic AI systems? How can we build better models of non-human animal cognition? (Re-)introducing the Animal-AI Environment: A virtual laboratory for comparative cognition and artificial intelligence research!

i heard there was an #openendedness starter pack on bluesky, so i had to move out there! thanks for setting that up @_rockt @ccolas there be my first follower!

🎉 Stoked to share The AI-Scientist 🧑‍🔬 - our end-to-end approach for conducting research with LLMs including ideation, coding, experiment execution, paper write-up & reviewing. Blog 📰: sakana.ai/ai-scientist/ Paper 📜: arxiv.org/abs/2408.06292 Code 💻: github.com/SakanaAI/AI-Sc… Work led together with @_chris_lu_, @cong_ml and jointly supervised by @j_foerst, @jeffclune, @hardmaru 🤗

Introducing The AI Scientist: The world’s first AI system for automating scientific research and open-ended discovery! sakana.ai/ai-scientist/ From ideation, writing code, running experiments and summarizing results, to writing entire papers and conducting peer-review, The AI Scientist opens a new era of AI-driven scientific research and accelerated discovery. Here are 4 example Machine Learning research papers generated by The AI Scientist. We published our report, The AI Scientist: Towards Fully Automated Open-Ended Scientific Discovery, and open-sourced our project! Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2408.06292 GitHub: github.com/SakanaAI/AI-Sc… Our system leverages LLMs to propose and implement new research directions. Here, we first apply The AI Scientist to conduct Machine Learning research. Crucially, our system is capable of executing the entire ML research lifecycle: from inventing research ideas and experiments, writing code, to executing experiments on GPUs and gathering results. It can also write an entire scientific paper, explaining, visualizing and contextualizing the results. Furthermore, while an LLM author writes entire research papers, another LLM reviewer critiques resulting manuscripts to provide feedback to improve the work, and also to select the most promising ideas to further develop in the next iteration cycle, leading to continual, open-ended discoveries, thus emulating the human scientific community. As a proof of concept, our system produced papers with novel contributions in ML research domains such language modeling, Diffusion and Grokking. We (@_chris_lu_, @RobertTLange, @hardmaru) proudly collaborated with the @UniOfOxford (@j_foerst, @FLAIR_Ox) and @UBC (@cong_ml, @jeffclune) on this exciting project.

If you're an #AI PhD student with an interest in either a) reasoning with LLMs or b) learning abstract representations, then @DeepMind's Cognition team are looking for interns for 2023: boards.greenhouse.io/deepmind/jobs/… The deadline is soon!

In this fun project, we trained artificial life using machine learning! Lenia creatures learn to survive obstacles using gradient descent (Neural CA) & curriculum learning (IMGEP), generalize well to unseen tasks. Full video + blog post + interactive demo: developmentalsystems.org/sensorimotor-l…

ML sure has gone a long way from playing with cats and dogs pictures... r/ML comments discussing using model + hashes to retrieve input CSAM images, the hell is wrong with people 😱

Release 2.2 of AAI is out. Only the start of the roadmap, and essentially just more setup for future additions, but looks like these kinds of tasks are going to remain relevant for a long time. github.com/mdcrosby/anima…

@__ReJ__ @unity3d That's a great question, it would definitely be what you say I think. In the animal AI we saw lack of self control where the value of a reward in sight was high despite it being unreachable (leading to the agent repeatedly bumping in the obstacle) so yeah it needs more work!

@BenBeyret @unity3d I wonder what “self-control” would mean in the RL context. “Self-control” sounds almost like high-level planning faculty that has to override “simpler” state->action policy.

@__ReJ__ @unity3d This experiment is about self control, even if they were unfamiliar with transparency at first they were given multiple trials to grasp it. The gibbon grabs onto the sides of the cylinder so it could clearly comprehend the need to go around. That poor gibbon fails self control :)

Preprint time again! Direct human-AI comparison using the Animal-AI Testbed by @KozzyVoudouris and team. Spoiler: Children (aged 6-10) outperform AI by a lot. psyarxiv.com/me3xy/ I'm so excited I made a quiz of AI vs Child performance (thread) Q1 Child or AI?
