Non-Cooperative Inverse Reinforcement Learning

Neural Information Processing Systems

Making decisions in the presence of a strategic opponent requires one to take into account the opponent's ability to actively mask its intended objective. To describe such strategic situations, we introduce the non-cooperative inverse reinforcement learning (N-CIRL) formalism. The N-CIRL formalism consists of two agents with completely misaligned objectives, where only one of the agents knows the true objective function.

Microsoft says AI can create "zero day" threats in biology

MIT Technology Review

Microsoft says AI can create "zero day" threats in biology Artificial intelligence can design toxins that evade security controls. A team at Microsoft says it used artificial intelligence to discover a zero day vulnerability in the biosecurity systems used to prevent the misuse of DNA. These screening systems are designed to stop people from purchasing genetic sequences that could be used to create deadly toxins or pathogens. But now researchers led by Microsoft's chief scientist, Eric Horvitz, say they have figured out how to bypass the protections in a way previously unknown to defenders. The team described its work today in the journal . Horvitz and his team focused on generative AI algorithms that propose new protein shapes.


Gradient Estimation with Stochastic Softmax Tricks Max B. Paulus

Neural Information Processing Systems

The Gumbel-Max trick is the basis of many relaxed gradient estimators. These estimators are easy to implement and low variance, but the goal of scaling them comprehensively to large combinatorial distributions is still outstanding.



Captain of tanker linked to Russian 'shadow fleet' charged in France

BBC News

Captain of tanker linked to Russian'shadow fleet' charged in France The captain of an oil tanker believed to be part of Russia's shadow fleet of vessels used to evade sanctions has been charged by French authorities. The Chinese national was handed one count of refusing to follow instructions from the French navy and told to attend a court hearing in the northern coastal city of Brest next February. The Boracay left Russia last month and was off the coast of Denmark when unidentified drones forced the temporary closure of several airports last week. The tanker was earlier boarded by French soldiers because it was on a list of vessels subject to EU sanctions for carrying Russian oil exports. Russian President Vladimir Putin called France's actions piracy.
