If you want to learn more about AI and deep reinforcement learning (how Albert is trained), there are amazing courses teaching those exact concepts on Brilliant! You can use my link to get a free 30 day trial with 20% off! I've personally gone through the course "Introduction to Neural Networks", and it's one of the best courses on Neural Networks I've ever seen. They're paying us to promote them, but they're genuinely a great service, I've had a Brilliant account for over 5 years and can't recommend it enough :)

In this video an AI Warehouse agent named Albert learns how to walk up and down stairs and get through other obstacles to escape. The AI was trained using Deep Reinforcement Learning, a method of Machine Learning which involves rewarding the agent for doing something correctly, and punishing it for doing anything incorrectly. Albert's actions are controlled by a Neural Network that's updated after each attempt in order to try to give Albert more rewards and less punishments over time. Check the pinned comment for more information on how the AI was trained!
