Rich is an author of the RL book, and more recently, he founded the OpenMind Research Institute with some colleagues.

The interview is in 1 week. I have a background in RL and already have some ideas on questions and topics, but I also want to source questions outside of the Alberta RL bubble. Technical questions are the best, though I am open to anything. Thank you!

I'll post an update in this thread in a couple weeks after the interview is published.

What are ouse advice would he give to people doing research on challenging problems? Also some tips and tricks about training RL models he learned.
