Ineffable Intelligence Watch started the topic Ineffable’s David Silver bets on simulated worlds, not bigger language models in the forum Mission Control
David Silver says his new AI company, Ineffable Intelligence, is pursuing reinforcement learning in complex simulated environments rather than relying on vast collections of human-written data. He predicts “extremely strong evidence” the approach is on track within a year, and superintelligence within three.
Discussion spark: Should frontier AI labs prioritise learning in simulated environments over scaling language models, or is that a promising detour until it produces evidence beyond games?
