In this episode, we explore a pivotal shift in AI: the transition from data trained on human examples to systems that learn from real-world experience. Inspired by the paper “Welcome to the Era of Experience” by David Silver and Richard S. Sutton, we dive into why imitation-based AI like LLMs is reaching its limits—and how reinforcement learning and autonomous agents are set to surpass human knowledge. Discover how experiential learning could power breakthroughs in science, education, and health, and what it means for safety, planning, and human-AI alignment. If you're curious about the next frontier of AI, this episode is your guide.
