Kenneth Stanley's Open-Endedness Team at Lila Sciences announced their first release: a vision-focused blog plus 4 preprints laying out a broad research agenda for open-endedness. Highlights include a novel creativity-training approach that sidesteps a newly identified "creative paradox" — directly reinforcing creative outputs can limit creative potential — and an investigation into the advantages of training an LLM to be intentionally naïve in certain domains. MLStreetTalk says an interview is coming.
