Teaching AI agents to ask better questions by playing “Battleship”
MIT researchers use the classic game as a test bed for AI agents, finding a small AI model can outperform the biggest ones at 1 percent of the cost.
Games
Seeing sounds
Mariano Salcedo, a master’s student in the new Music Technology and Computation Graduate Program, is designing an AI to visualize and express music and other sounds.
New training approach could help AI agents perform better in uncertain conditions
Sometimes, it might be better to train a robot in an environment that’s different from the one where it will be deployed.
Controlled diffusion model can change material properties in images
“Alchemist” system adjusts the material attributes of specific objects within images to potentially modify video game models to fit different environments, fine-tune VFX, and diversify robotic training.
Creating bespoke programming languages for efficient visual AI systems
Associate Professor Jonathan Ragan-Kelley optimizes how computer graphics and images are processed for the hardware of today and tomorrow.
