Over the past decade, deep learning has transformed how artificial intelligence (AI) agents perceive and act in digital environments, allowing them to master board games, control simulated robots and reliably tackle various other tasks. Yet most of these systems still depend on enormous amounts of direct experience—millions of trial-and-error interactions—to achieve even modest competence.

While the world’s leading artificial intelligence companies race to build ever-larger models, betting billions that scale alone will unlock artificial general intelligence, a researcher at one of the industry’s most secretive and valuable startups delivered a pointed challenge to that orthodoxy this week: The path forward isn’t about training bigger — it’s about learning better. …
