I was a bit disappointed that there was no chance to ask questions at the #NeurIPS2022 invited talk by Alondra Nelson on the AI Bill of Rights.

I would have liked to hear how the White House expects that a document that (quoting as far as I recall) is not a "binding legal document" will have impact that is in any way comparable to the EU's corresponding regulatory actions (GDPR, AI Act, DSA, DMA, ...) which entail multimillion euro penalties when violated.

I'd like to migrate to Mastodon the Twitter bots I maintain such as @JmlrOrg and @TmlrSub.

What are good libraries / tutorials / examples for writing a (very simple) Mastodon bot in Python?

#introduction

Hi, I'm a research scientist at DeepMind studying structured representations and model-based deep RL. Previously, I did my PhD in Psychology at UC Berkeley in which I studied how people use mental simulation. The last few years I've been studying model-based systems like MuZero and trying to understand when they are better than model-free, and what role the model plays. I'm also very interested in structured reprs like programs and graphs and how to incorporate them into RL!
