TL;DR: I made a Transformer that conditions its generation on latent variables. To do so an encoder Transformer only needs a source of randomness during generation, but then it needs an encoder for training, as a [conditional] VAE. 1/5

"Agents" made all the headlines in 2025 but a less noticed trend is massive investment/budget/focus shift to games and environments for AI research. Another example here -- huge pivot from consumer to (Medal, founded 2018) to frontier AI research.
