LASP's era is coming to an end, but only because of a new and incredibly exciting opportunity🚀

Strongly believing 1+1=3, we are merging @UCL_LASP, @FLAIR_Ox, @whi_rl, @UCL_DARK and AIRL in favour of BOLD — the British Open-ended Learning and Discovery Lab (@BOLD_Lab_AI)

AI4Science Workshop: “From In Silico to In Vitro: Evaluating Molecule Generative Models for Hit Generation.”
We answer: Can generative models generate hit-like molecules? We build a multi-stage evaluation and benchmark models across datasets.

✨Exciting news from our PhD student in LASP team!

📢Introducing #NAVIX: a lightning-fast reimagination of #MiniGrid in #JAX for rapid RL training. 🚀 #ReinforcementLearning #AI

[Eduardo Pignatelli @edupignatelli]

📢 ⚡️Glad to finally release #NAVIX: we re-implemented MiniGrid in #JAX for lightning-fast RL training🚀

You can now train more than 2048 #PPO agents on #MiniGrid environments in less than *2* minutes! ⚡️⚡️

Say goodbye to long and tedious hparams search! 👋👋
