This Meeting Could Have Been A Podcast - and now it is. This week we transformed our Oct 21 AI team meeting into an algorithmically distilled episode of USV Radio. We cover multi-agent systems, decentralized training, and how we're thinking about investing in the space: https://soundcloud.com/thelibrarian-46645069/oh-usv-how-to-invest-in-ai-multi-agent-learning-decentralized-training-video-games
