OpenAI Qstar algorithm Watch this video on YouTube. What makes the Q* algorithm particularly powerful is its combination of Q-learning with advanced pathfinding techniques.

At issue was an algorithm called Q* (pronounced “Q-star”), which has allegedly been shown to solve certain grade-school-level math problems that it hasn’t seen before.

A* is also fairly old- it’s a heuristic-based path finding algorithm. In typical engineering fashion, they may have found an intersection of the 2 and named it Q*. This is total speculation, but if ...
