AI Learning to land a Rocket(Lunar Lander) Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement learning is one of the most discussed, followed and contemplated topics in artificial intelligence (AI) as it has the potential to transform most businesses. At the core of reinforcement learning is the concept that optimal behaviour or action is reinforced by a positive reward. Similar to toddlers learning how to walk who adjust actions based on the outcomes they experience such as taking a smaller step if the previous broad step made them fall. Machines and AI agents use reinforcement learning algorithms to determine the ideal behaviour based upon feedback from the environment. An example of the reinforcement Learning in Action is AlphaGo Zero which was in the headlines in 2017.
