DESCRIPTION:I will talk about our research towards developing increasingly
  capable and general AI. Central to this research direction is Open-Endedn
 ess: the attempt to create an AI that can endlessly improve and expand its
  capabilities. In particular\, this talk will focus on three areas: traini
 ng autonomous and robust agents that can set themselves problems and goals
 \, training large-scale world models which can provide AIs with endless en
 vironments to learn in\, and lastly\, the connection of Open-Endedness met
 hods to Large Language Models to develop AI that can improve itself with a
 pplications in automated prompt engineering and AI safety.\n\nBio: I'm a P
 rofessor of Artificial Intelligence at the Centre for Artificial Intellige
 nce in the Department of Computer Science at University College London (UC
 L) where I'm a PI of the UCL Deciding\, Acting\, and Reasoning with Knowle
 dge (DARK) Lab. I'm also the Open-Endedness Team Lead at Google DeepMind\,
  and a Scholar of the European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Sys
 tems (ELLIS).
