We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.
About Us We aim to enhance Gemini's capabilities to become a truly collaborative partner.
User intent is typically unveiled through an ongoing, interactive, and multi-step conversation, rather than a single, isolated prompt.
We seek for the model to be able to proactively engage by asking clarifying questions, making timely suggestions, and automatically incorporating relevant context from past interactions and personal data.
This challenge is conceptualized as an imperfect information game.
The core objective is for the model to deduce a user's hidden goals and preferences through cues provided during a conversation.
We plan to utilize advanced Reinforcement Learning methods to optimize for long-term user satisfaction, which necessitates solving intricate credit assignment issues within interactive, stateful environments; model robustness issues; and exploration/exploitation strategies.
The techniques you develop will have a direct impact on a wide range of Gemini applications.
Key responsibilities: + Design and implement novel multiturn RL algorithms to train collaborative LLMs.
This includes exploring advanced methods for credit assignment, model robustness, and exploration/exploitation strategies.
