Bringing Multi-Agent Learning to Societal Impact: From Steganography to Solar Geoengineering

Speaker: Christian Schroeder de Witt

Over the past years, much progress has been made in deep multi-agent learning in recreational games, such as Go or DOTA 2. In this talk, I propose to use these tools to generate societal impact instead. Starting from my recent breakthrough research yielding the world's first perfectly secure generative steganography algorithm, to robustifying Human-AI systems against illusory attacks, non-linear decision-making in the net-zero transition, and optimizing solar geoengineering discuss how multi-agent learning can raise new questions about some of the biggest societal challenges of our time, as well as power new technology to advance equity, expand opportunity and protect basic rights and liberties.
