Now DeepMind's New AI Agent Outperforms Humans

Recently, a team of researchers from DeepMind, Google Brain and the University of Toronto unveiled a new reinforcement learning agent known as DreamerV2. This reinforcement learning agent learns behaviours purely from the predictions in the compact latent space of a powerful world model. According to the researchers, DreamerV2 is the first agent to achieve human-level performance on the Atari benchmark. DreamerV2, a collaboration between DeepMind, @GoogleAI and the @UofT, is the first RL agent based on a world model to achieve human-level performance on the Atari benchmark. From driverless cars to beating Go world champions, reinforcement learning has come a long way.
