Misha Laskin

I'm a Research Scientist at DeepMind where I work on developing generally intelligent agents. I'm currently interested in large scale RL, in-context learning, and language models that can act in an environment. Previously I was a postdoc at UC Berkeley, founder of a Y Combinator-backed startup, and a physics PhD at UChicago.

I sometimes write here and on Twitter @MishaLaskin (opens in a new tab).
