Turing Award, Reinforcement Learning

Pioneers of Reinforcement Learning Win the Turing Award
Having machines learn from experience was once considered a dead end. It’s now critical to artificial intelligence, and work in the field has won two men the highest honor in computer science.
Turing Award Goes to 2 Pioneers of Artificial Intelligence
Turing Award: The award, often called the Nobel Prize of computing, was given to Andrew Barto and Richard Sutton, the developers of a technique called reinforcement learning that is vital to chatbots.
Reinforcement learning pioneers harshly criticize the "unsafe" state of AI development

AI pioneers scoop Turing Award for reinforcement learning work
Two trailblazing computer scientists have won the 2024 Turing Award for their work in reinforcement learning, a discipline in which machines learn through a reward-based trial-and-error approach that lets them adapt within constrained or dynamic environments.
AI Pioneers Win Prestigious Turing Award or ‘Nobel Prize of Computing’
Reinforcement learning pioneers Andrew Barto and Richard Sutton receive the Turing Award for revolutionizing AI innovation and shaping the future of technology.
AI pioneers win computer science’s top prize
Teaching machines in the way that animal trainers mold the behavior of dogs or horses has been an important method for developing artificial intelligence (AI) and one that was recognized Wednesday with the top computer science award.
