Today we’re joined by Olivier Bachem, a research scientist at Google AI on the Brain team.

Olivier joins us to discuss his work on Google’s research football project, their foray into building a novel reinforcement learning environment. Olivier and Sam discuss what makes this environment different than other available RL environments, such as OpenAI Gym and PyGame, what other techniques they explored while using this environment, and what’s on the horizon for their team and Football RLE.
