Kan naturens egen designproces videreudvikle AI? En ny lærebog skrevet af ITU-professor @risi.bsky.social m.fl. udforsker feltet 𝙉𝙚𝙪𝙧𝙤𝙚𝙫𝙤𝙡𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣, der kan ændre fremtidens kunstige intelligens. "Grundideen er at efterligne, hvordan intelligens opstod i naturen." Læs mere 👉 itu.dk/Om-ITU/Press...

Excited to announce our book “Neuroevolution: Harnessing Creativity in AI Agent Design” by Sebastian Risi, Yujin Tang, Risto Miikkulainen, and myself. We explore decades of work on evolving intelligent agents and shows how neuroevolution can drive creativity in deep learning, RL, LLMs and AI Agents!

This year's ALICE guest speakers 🧑‍🔬 - Angel Goñi-Moreno - @angelgm.bsky.social - Alyssa Adams - @alyssa-m-adams.bsky.social - Alexander Mordvintsev - Eric Medvet - @ericmedvetts.bsky.social - Kyrre Glette - @kyrre2000.bsky.social - Stefano Nichele - @stenichele.bsky.social - Susan Stepney

Our (in the making) paper combining morphogenetic fields and neural cellular cellular automata with @miltonllera.bsky.social, Eleni Nisioti & @risi.bsky.social got a little award at @alife2025.bsky.social #ALife2025 💮✨

The SONI session turned out a great—shout out to the speakers & the panelists @emilydolson.bsky.social, @risi.bsky.social, @blaiseaguera.bsky.social & Sidney Pontes-Filho for great talks & discussion on how we can rethink intelligence under the complexity lens. #ALife2025 @alife2025.bsky.social

We had the chance to visit the new Artificial Life Institute in Kyoto. Beautiful & inspiring space ✨
