Real-life Reinforcement Learning: The Reality Series

oh.. need to get some background score to match to the coolness that existed before.

Isn't that funny? An Artificial Intelligence Video is muted by youtube's artificial intelligence recognizing a song that isn't there... btw now youtube says it is "Jimi Hendrix All Along the watchtower"

@SalsaTiger83 (testing... it's been preventing me from replying.)

[mlittman]

@SalsaTiger83 Nice one. I hadn't considered the irony, but you're right. Thanks for telling me what song they objected to---I hadn't seen that. 

[mlittman]

@SalsaTiger83 I posted the video with audio but without songs, but it doesn't seem to want me to give the URL. You can find it on my channel.

Where's the new movie?

The music industry nazis strike again.

[mlittman]

I had no idea what you meant and then noticed the sound had been muted! They provide a mechanism for appealing, but they didn't say what song they think I used, so I don't know how to rebut it!

[balajitechnology]

This is sooo kool .. we need more of these in all the areas of research

[superjaykramer]

I did a fair amount of research in this area my self a few years ago, have there been any new developments to solve the state space explosion issue with reinforcement learning.

[mlittman]

Yes, that's a tough problem. Sure, there's always progress being made but no magic bullet.

[superjaykramer]

wtf?

[mlittman]

I suggest you read "About the Video", which explains why the video was made.

[superjaykramer]

yeah read it. wtf?

[mlittman]

Oh, ok.  I guess I don't understand the question, then. We had a workshop, I made a video to show during the summary session. I tried to make it a little bit more fun (sometimes research can seem a bit dry) by using the style of MTV's "Real World" TV series.

[superjaykramer]

wow. didn't mean to offend. So are you doing research in this area?

[mlittman]

No, no offense taken. I just wanted to clarify since you seemed to be unsure what the video was about. Yes, I made the video and organized the workshop because I am doing research in this area.
