AI Models vs. Methodologies
- Listeners often confuse AI models with methodologies like Reinforcement Learning, GANs, and Transfer Learning.
- These methodologies represent different approaches to utilizing AI models, not distinct model architectures themselves.
Reinforcement Learning Basics
- In reinforcement learning, an agent learns by taking actions in an environment and receiving rewards for desirable outcomes.
- This reward system shapes the agent's policy, guiding it towards optimal behavior.
RL in Robotics
- Chris Benson worked with reinforcement learning specialists at a previous employer.
- These specialists focused on applying reinforcement learning techniques to robotics.
