Real-world RL for the public good! Love to see it!

We're super excited to introduce the Academia Hub! A game-changer for school, university, courses, research, projects, collaborations, publications. Learn more: huggingface.co/docs/hub/aca... It's a per-school offer, not individual => your faculty/admin have to apply Go schools, go universities!
