Reinforcement Learning Conference@rl-conference.bsky.social · 2mo agoA truly compelling keynote from Sheila McIlraith at RLC 2026 today — exploring how formal language can serve as a nexus between signals and symbols for agents that learn, plan, and remember. A principled and thought-provoking perspective on the future of RL and agentic AI!
A fascinating keynote from Rika Antonova at RLC today! "Beyond Entropy: Reshaping Exploration through Co-Evolution" — What if the key to better exploration in RL is not just smarter search, but letting the agent itself evolve- A compelling perspective on co-evolution & co-design in RL!
