We develop AI systems where communication emerges naturally from the interactions between agents. This approach mirrors the evolution of human language, enabling AI.
MicrocosmAI is pioneering advancements through research and development in genuine machine cognition and human-level understanding for embodied artificial agents. Our agents demonstrate emergent behaviors such as communication and cooperation, which arise from the complex dynamics of their interactions with other agents and their simulated physical environments. We achieve this by leveraging artificial neural models to drive decision-making in multi-agent systems, focusing on collaborative tasks that demand grounded and context-aware communication.
MicrocosmAI is a research initiative comprising enthusiastic researchers and students from all over the world. We’re dedicated to advancing the field of AI with our research and development in the open-source domain, building frameworks for training multi-agent systems in simulated physical environments. On our blog, we also highlight especially innovative student projects emerging from our teaching at the University of Osnabrück. Additionally, we participate in public events focused on science communication to engage both technical and non-technical audiences, fostering understanding and transparency in AI.
