There\u2019s a ton of excitement about reinforcement learning, a form of semi-supervised machine learning that underpins a lot of today\u2019s cutting-edge artificial intelligence algorithms. Here\u2019s a crash course in the algorithmic machinery behind AlphaGo, and self-driving cars, and major logistical optimization projects\u2014and the robots that, tomorrow, will clean our houses and (hopefully) not take over the world\u2026
