Applications of Reinforcement Learning: Recent examples from large US companies – Gradient Flow

“When I wrote about enterprise applications of reinforcement learning (RL) a little over a year ago, I cited a few examples of applications for recommenders and personalization systems. At the time, the examples I listed came from large technology companies, specifically Netflix, JD, Facebook, and YouTube, as only large companies tended to have the resources to utilize RL. Fast-forward a year later, RL is still not a widely used or accessible technology. Our recent analysis of Fortune 1000* companies revealed that, compared to other techniques (like deep learning), engagement in RL is very much still in the early stages across all sectors:

This isn’t too surprising. Compared to traditional supervised and unsupervised learning methods, RL is much more difficult to implement and maintain…”
