Human-AI cooperation is important, but existing work trains on the same 5 Overcooked layouts, creating brittle strategies.

Instead, we find that training on billions of procedurally generated tasks trains agents to learn general cooperative norms that transfer to humans... like avoiding collision

Just shared a new article on "The State of Reinforcement Learning for LLM Reasoning"!
If you are new to reinforcement learning, this article has a generous intro section (PPO, GRPO, etc)
Also, I cover 15 recent articles focused on RL & Reasoning.

QuestBench: Can LLMs ask the right question to acquire information in reasoning tasks? Recently, a large amount of work has focused on improving large language models' (LLMs') performance on reasoning benchmarks such as math and logic. However, past work has largely assumed that tasks a...

Test time inference has been the paradigm for 'reasoning' models. A new paper however asks if the models even know how to ask the right questions. arxiv.org/abs/2503.22674.

Speculating with a friend today about the @iclr-conf.bsky.social Test of Time award and we were trying to see if any papers could compete with Bahdanau et al (ie ATTENTION) but uh apparently we didn’t notice the just announced winner: Kingma & Ba (ADAM). Damn. ICLR 2015 was STACKED.

The transformer was invented in Google. RLHF was not invented in industry labs, but came to prominence in OpenAI and DeepMind. I took 5 of the most influential papers (black dots) and visualized their references. Blue dots are papers that acknowledge federal funding (DARPA, NSF).

Just finished The AI Mirror by @shannonvallor.bsky.social. Very highly recommended. Transcending the stale accelerationist/doomer debate, Vallor reminds us what technology is for, and where (some of the) true dangers of AI lie. Powerful stuff, eloquently written global.oup.com/academic/pro...

And don’t be satisfied with the first result, push back and ask for improvements.

When we read the news, images can convey different things than text itself.

Unlike other works which look at text, we study this as a β€œmultimodal” framing problem & analyze where text and images communicate different β€œframes”.
