Timeline (last 90 days)
AI for Science is an interdisciplinary field that has emerged in recent years, referring to the use of artificial intelligence methods to accelerate scientific discovery, covering the entire process from hypothesis generation and experimental design to data analysis. Representative cases include DeepMind's AlphaFold (protein structure prediction), GNoME (new materials discovery), and Microsoft Research's work on molecular dynamics and quantum chemistry.
Shevlin appreciates the work on mechanistic interpretability by Neel Nanda's lab inside DeepMind.
AlphaZero proved that in domains with clear rules and definable rewards, RL can learn strategies surpassing humans from scratch.
Reflection AI was founded by former DeepMind researchers.
Perception Test is a multi-task video understanding benchmark released by DeepMind, covering 19,140 questions spanning perception, memory, abstract reasoning, and other areas.
In 2016, researchers from DeepMind and the University of Oxford jointly published a paper exploring how to design AI agents that allow humans to safely shut them down at any time.
DeepMind在2016年的论文《Safely Interruptible Agents》中指出理想的智能体不应抵制外部中断，也不应绕过人类设定的终止条件
In a DeepMind study, a robot instructed not to fall learned to make itself taller in order to lower its center of gravity and avoid falling.
AlphaGo's Move 37 appeared in the 37th move of the second game of DeepMind's 2016 match against Lee Sedol, demonstrating that AI can employ strategies humans would never conceive of.
Some researchers who previously worked at institutions such as OpenAI and DeepMind have, after leaving, issued AI risk warnings in notably harsher terms.
