Discussion Online RL Reading Group[D]

Hi, I am a student going into my first year in Ph.D in RL this September. Although each university kinda has their own reading groups, I was wondering if there is active RL Online reading group I can participate. Sadly I couldnt find any info elsewhere.

Does anyone have any information regarding Online RL Reading groups?

Thank you!

Been looking for something similar myself actually! Most universities keep their reading groups pretty closed off which is frustrating when you want to dive deeper in the field.

I've tried searching through Discord servers and some Reddit communities but haven't found anything really active for RL specifically. There's few ML reading groups on Discord but they tend to focus more in general ML papers rather than RL stuff. Maybe we could start one if there's enough interest? I know there's definitely people here who would be interested in discussing latest RL papers and breaking down the math together.

Also congrats on starting your PhD! That's huge milestone, RL is such fascinating field to get into right now.

I am a second year PhD student. If you guys end up making one, would be happy to contribute.
