Trap-Door Environments for MineRL Agents

Proposal A "change everything" button in a MineRL environment that instantly changes the environment through Stable Diffusion or some other fast generative model, to observe the change in learned representations and goal generalization.

Understand the architecture and training dynamics of Transformers

A proper mechanistic explanation of model behavior comes from a deep interest in understanding each component that goes into training it. This is a good tutorial (with exercises!) that walks through the architectural components, and the training process for a Transformer in Jax, from 2022's Deep Learning Indaba. https://github.com/deep-learning-indaba/indaba-pracs-2022/blob/main/practicals/attention_and_transformers.ipynb
