M9: Advanced Topics and Project Presentations
The final module pulls the threads together. We visit advanced topics—mechanism design, fairness, and exploration–exploitation trade-offs—at the intersection of game theory and AI. Then you present an open-ended research contribution applying course concepts to a problem of your choosing. Whether you build an LLM agent, analyze an existing system through game-theoretic lenses, or propose a monitoring framework, your project should demonstrate mastery of the foundations and engagement with the frontier.
