Historic Shift in Artificial Intelligence: The Atari 10K Challenge

VERSES AI’s (CBOE: VERS) (OTCQB: VRSSF) Atari 10K Challenge is poised to bring about a significant transformation in the field of artificial intelligence. This initiative promises to enhance the development of intelligent systems by making it more accessible and scalable. One of the standout features of the Atari 10K Challenge is its ability to achieve human-level performance in multiple Atari games while utilizing only 10,000 frames of data, which is an impressive 90% reduction in data usage compared to traditional methods. Additionally, it requires significantly less computational power by using a single, adaptable architecture compared to leading industry approaches.

Preliminary results from the challenge reveal that VERSES AI's Active Inference-based, Bayesian models can perform on par with, or even exceed, the results achieved by state-of-the-art reinforcement learning algorithms. These include the top-ranked BBF (Bigger, Better, Faster) model from Google’s DeepMind and various other models that support well-known generative AI systems from companies like Nvidia, Microsoft, Advanced Micro Devices, and Cisco. Notably, these models utilize 90% less data, 96% lower compute resources, and are as much as 97% smaller in size, which is particularly vital for running on low-power devices.

Upcoming Presentation at The World Economic Forum

VERSES AI Inc. is scheduled to present at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2025, which will be held from January 20-24 in Davos, Switzerland. Chief Scientist Karl Friston along with senior leadership will engage in various discussions and presentations during this prestigious event. This setting will offer an opportunity for VERSES AI to share the latest updates on the Atari 10K Challenge.

The forthcoming presentation will include results and video demonstrations showcasing how VERSES models meet or surpass human-level performance in various Atari games, all while depending on a fraction of the data and computational resources traditionally needed.
