ReflectionAI

Today we are announcing Reflection. Our team pioneered major advances in RL and LLMs, including AlphaGo and Gemini. At Reflection, we're building superintelligent autonomous systems. We believe that solving autonomous coding will enable superintelligence more broadly. Our company is defined by three things: 1) A team behind some of the most capable RL and LLM systems ever created - the two building blocks for superintelligence. 2) A focus on building the best autonomous coding systems in the world. Rather than doing many things, we do one thing really well. 3) Equal emphasis on research and product. Superintelligence cannot be built in a vacuum. We look for colleagues who have high internal drive, integrity, and a deep interest in the problems we’re pursuing. If that’s exciting to you, join us. We’re excited to partner with Sequoia Capital, Lightspeed, and CRV and want to thank Shirin Ghaffary for covering the story.

Heard of the famous "Move 37" by AlphaGo in it's match against world champion Lee Sedol? In a sit down with Sequoia Capital, ReflectionAI Co-Founder and CTO Ioannis Alexandros Antonoglou describes the triumphs of reinforcement learning, his experience as a founding engineer of Google DeepMind, lessons for building AI agents today and how we will move from AlphaGo to AGI. https://lnkd.in/e_vWCNe3

Ioannis Antonoglou, co-creator of AlphaGo at Google DeepMind & now cofounder of ReflectionAI, describes the most spectacular moment of the game between Go world champion Lee Sodol and AlphaGo, on today's ep of Sequoia Capital's Training Data: Move 37. What was it? "A spectacular moment in the sense that it kind of showed case to the world that AlphaGo has creativity, and it demonstrated that AI could come up with strategies that even top human players hadn’t considered. So at first, I still remember that we thought that AlphaGo made an error, so that it actually hallucinated, it did something that it didn’t mean to. But then it turned out to be a brilliant, unconventional move that underscored that the system had a deep understanding of the game, that the system actually had creativity. It could think of things that people hadn’t thought of before."

When two of the world's top AI researchers give you the chance to join the mission in building AGI...you do it. In early January I joined ReflectionAI to lead the growth and operations teams. Reflection was founded by former DeepMind and OpenAI researchers to solve the last remaining problem before AGI by building superhuman coding agents. The talent density at Reflection is off the charts. Our research team is hard at work and seeing incredible progress. Thanks to Misha Laskin and Ioannis Alexandros Antonoglou for the opportunity to join this incredible team and mission. It's been a blur of a last month with a lot more to come soon...

ReflectionAI CEO and Co-Founder Misha Laskin sat down with Sequoia Capital to discuss the "AlphaGo" moment for LLMs, and how Reflection co-founder Ioannis Alexandros Antonoglou (co-creator of AlphaGo and AlphaZero and RLHF lead for Gemini) and the Reflection research team, are leveraging their unique insights to train the most reliable models for developers building agentic workflows. https://lnkd.in/eRdGyfWW
