> *ABSTRACT*
> This talk will present BabyAI, a research project based at Mila with the
> long-term goal of creating agents which we can communicate with and teach
> new concepts using natural language. We will begin by discussing why
> language learning is a hard problem, one to which deep learning doesn't yet
> have a satisfying answer for. We will then introduce the BabyAI platform,
> created to study the sample efficiency of grounded language learning in the
> context of embodied agents and instruction following (see paper accepted at
