Discover the groundbreaking approach of Phaidra, where reinforcement learning meets control systems in mission-critical applications. Jim Gao, a pioneer in the field, was shocked at the AI's ability to creatively do the real-world job it was programmed to do, stating: "We first looked at the decisions the AI suggested and thought 'there's no way this is right, this AI sucks, it learned the wrong thing, but we are here anyway so let's try it', and we did try it — and it worked, we saw the energy [usage] just plummet!" We at Empirix have had the privilege of hosting Jim, witnessing firsthand the revolutionary insights that he and his team at Phaidra are bringing to the mission-critical industry. Dive deeper into this fascinating topic by tuning in to Sequoia Capital's "Training Data" podcast. Check the comments for links to Jim's conversations!
