He didn’t just write the book.
He wrote the future.
“ I think of [AI] as a great scientific
objective, a scientific prize,
if you will, and maybe the greatest
scientific prize of all time. ”
– Richard Sutton
Richard Sutton’s research
in reinforcement learning
is more than influential —
it’s foundational. His work
continues to shape AI,
powering breakthroughs
across industries.
Now, the world recognizes
his contributions with the
A.M. Turing Award,
the most prestigious prize
in computing.
We don’t only study AI at
the University of Alberta —
we help define it.
Congratulations, Dr. Sutton!
The world is still learning from you.
