Memory is an important part of human intelligence and the human experience. It grounds us in the current moment, helping us understand where we are and, consequently, what we should do next. Consider the simple example of reading a book.…
Deep learning methodologies like supervised learning have been very successful in training machines to make predictions about the world. But because they’re so dependent upon large amounts of human-annotated data, they’ve been difficult to scale. Dr. Phil Bachman, a researcher…

When people create, it’s not very often they achieve what they’re looking for on the first try. Creating—whether it be a painting, a paper, or a machine learning model—is a process that has a starting point from which new elements…
The ability to read and understand unstructured text, and then answer questions about it, is a common skill among literate humans. But for machines? Not so much. At least not yet! And not if Dr. T.J. Hazen, Senior Principal Research…

AI has made major strides in the last decade, from beating the world champion of Go, to learning how to program, to telling fantastical short stories. However, a basic human trait continues to elude machines: common sense. Common sense…
Ordered Neurons: Integrating Tree Structures into Recurrent Neural Networks, from the Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA) and the Microsoft Research Montréal lab, was one of two Best Paper winners at ICLR 2019.
First TextWorld Problems—Microsoft Research Montreal’s latest AI competition is really cooking
