Kevin Murphy plans ARC Prize summit talk on his 'Model Discovery Agent' and a scientific benchmark

ARC Prize announced Google DeepMind research scientist Kevin Murphy as a speaker for its 2026 Research Summit. Murphy said on October 17 that he planned to speak in Boston the following week about his 'Model Discovery Agent' and creating an 'ARC-AGI-3-like' interactive scientific benchmark. His proposed test would let agents run a few experiments in a partially observed stochastic simulator, fit a causal world model to the data, and evaluate predictions about novel interventions rather than the model itself.
