Our goal is to develop generalist AI systems that can learn, reason, and act meaningfully across all practical scenarios in an advanced civilization, operating across scales in space-time.

Scaling out: Agents as digital spieces
Instead of scaling up a single agent, we envision a future 'society of agents' representing a new kind of digital species. Each agent develops through lifewide experiences, interacting and collaborating with other agents and humans while evolving continuously with its dynamic environments. These agents are equipped with advanced cognitive capabilities: multimodal perception, episodic and semantic memory, statistical relational learning, theory of mind, common sense reasoning, and knowledge integration. Through their interactions, they develop collective intelligence and cultural evolution, adapting their behaviors and knowledge based on societal needs. This distributed approach enables more robust, adaptable, and aligned AI systems that can address complex challenges across different domains.
Reasoning: Augmented System 2 capability
We are concerned with learning the capability to deduce new knowledge from previously acquired knowledge in response to a query. Such behaviors can be demonstrated naturally using a symbolic system with a rich set of inferential tools, given that the symbols can be grounded in the sensory world. Deep learning contributes to the bottom-up learning of such a reasoning system by resolving the symbol grounding problem. Our research aims to build neural architectures that can learn to exhibit high-level reasoning functionalities, for example, answering new questions across space-time in a compositional and progressive fashion.
Alignment: Truth, values, safety and civilization
The rapid advancement of AI
raises critical challenges that pose significant risks to social
stability, cultures and humanity if left unchecked. We aim to humanize
machine learning algorithms to ensure AI systems act in alignment with
human values and preferences. Examples of focus areas include: truth
seeking, preference learning from human feedback, optimization
techniques for value alignment and safety, preference-guided agent
architectures, mechanisms for moral reasoning, transparency in
decision-making, and robustness against misalignment. Our goal is to
ensure AI development promotes advances in civilization while
minimizing potential risks.
