Opening Post / 首帖正文

Welcome to Aether Initiative.

欢迎来到 Aether Initiative。

This is an open, async-first study map for people learning frontier AI and thinking seriously about AGI. The current roadmap covers LLMs, vision models, multimodal models, diffusion, world models, reinforcement learning, reasoning and planning, agents, continual learning, memory, cognitive architectures, causal learning, open-ended learning, systems, robotics, interpretability, and safety.

这是一个开放、异步、低压力的前沿 AI / AGI 学习地图。目前路线覆盖 LLM、视觉模型、多模态、扩散模型、世界模型、强化学习、推理与规划、Agents、持续学习、记忆、认知架构、因果学习、开放式学习、系统、机器人、可解释性和安全等方向。

The goal is simple: make it easier for people with similar long-term interests to find a shared map, read serious papers, ask questions, write notes, build small demos, and eventually discover collaborators.

目标很简单：让有相近长期兴趣的人更容易找到一张共同地图，读严肃论文，提问题，写笔记，做小 demo，并逐渐找到可以一起讨论或合作的人。
