📢 Our Early Career Talk at #CoLLAs2026 tackled a critical question: Did the system actually adapt? Bhavya showed us why standard metrics like accuracy can be misleading in lifelong learning. To build reliable agents, evaluation must be grounded in the problem's structure!🧠 🎙️ Huge thanks to Bhavya!

000

collasconf.bsky.social @collasconf.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

📢 Next, for #Collas2026 Day 1, Michael Bowling challenged the core foundations of Continual RL! Are MDPs, optimal policies & ergodicity assumptions holding us back? 🤔 We explored alternative foundations & new algorithms for ever-changing worlds. 🌍✨ 🎙️ Huge thanks for the inspiring talk!
