- A team published a Nature paper introducing the first superhuman Stratego AI, a milestone in imperfect-information games.
- The key claim: it was built with general-purpose RL and test-time compute techniques, not Stratego-specific tricks, suggesting applicability to broader real-world decision-making under uncertainty.
