Predicting the past with Ithaca
The birth of human writing marked the dawn of History and is crucial to our understanding of past civilisations and the world we live in today. For example, more than 2,500 years ago, the Greeks...

Learning Robust Real-Time Cultural Transmission without Human Data
In this work, we use deep reinforcement learning to generate artificial agents capable of test-time cultural transmission. Once trained, our agents can infer and recall navigational knowledge...

Red Teaming Language Models with Language Models
In our recent paper, we show that it is possible to automatically find inputs that elicit harmful text from language models by generating inputs using language models themselves. Our approach...

Spurious normativity enhances learning of compliance and enforcement behavior in artificial agents
In our recent paper we explore how multi-agent deep reinforcement learning can serve as a model of complex social interactions, like the formation of social norms. This new class of models could...

Creating Interactive Agents with Imitation Learning
We show that imitation learning of human-human interactions in a simulated world, in conjunction with self-supervised learning, is sufficient to produce a multimodal interactive agent, which we...
