Title: Mastering Board Games by External and Internal Planning with Language Models

This seminar explores how AI utilizes language models for strategic planning in board games. It delves into the integration of external and internal planning mechanisms, where external planning involves leveraging pre-trained models to predict optimal moves, while internal planning refines decision-making through self-play and game-state evaluation. The talk will highlight how these approaches enable AI to understand, adapt, and optimize strategies in complex, decision-based environments. Attendees will gain insights into the latest advancements in AI-driven gameplay, reinforcement learning, and multi-agent planning, with real-world applications extending beyond board games.
