Robert Lange on NN Pruning and Collective Intelligence

Robert Lange on NN Pruning and Collective Intelligence

We speak with Robert Lange!

Robert is a PhD student at the Technical University Berlin. His research combines Deep Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning and Cognitive Science to study the learning dynamics of large collectives. He has a brilliant blog where he distils and explains cutting edge ML research. We spoke about his story, economics, multi-agent RL, intelligence and AGI, and his recent article summarising the state of the art in neural network pruning.
