Behind the new AI revolution: overparametrized neural networks and reinforcement learning

Dr András György, Senior Staff Research Scientist at DeepMind, past Faculty Member, Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Imperial College London (2015-2019)

Dr György highlighted some unexpected properties of these systems. They included the surprising fact that overparameterization helps; the appearance of adversarial examples; how the latter pose security risks, but also how they can be utilised for good purposes.

DeepMind is a company where scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, work together to advance the state of the art in AI. They research and build safe artificial intelligence systems with a goal to solve intelligence and advance scientific discovery for all.
