we are working to improve the default settings to be more neutral, and also to empower users to get our systems to behave in accordance with their individual preferences within broad bounds. this is harder than it sounds and will take us some time to get right.

Blind AI Agents Learn Navigation Through Emergent Neural Representations
By
–
We train blind AI agents to navigate — i.e. no sensory input other than ego-motion and found the emergence of wall-following, collision-detection neurons, and map-like representations in their memories. This provides new insights into the success of 'map-free' navigation agents.

📣 New paper: Emergence of Maps in the Memories of Blind Navigation Agents
— AI at Meta (@AIatMeta) 1 février 2023
Humans have the ability to navigate poorly lit spaces by relying on touch and memory. Our research shows that blind AI agents can learn to do the same.
