The Magi RL library offers a robust framework for reinforcement learning (RL) using JAX, making it a powerful tool for developers in the AI field. In this blog, we will cover how to install Magi, utilize its agents, and provide troubleshooting tips to ensure a smooth experience.

Installation Steps

To install the Magi library, follow these straightforward instructions:

1. Create a new Python virtual environment:

bash
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

2. Install the necessary dependencies:

bash
pip install -U pip setuptools wheel
pip install git+https://github.com/deepmind/acme.git#egg=dm-acme[jax,tf,examples]
pip install -e .[jax]

3. If you want to run examples on GPU, you can install JAX with the CUDA version:

bash
pip install jax[cuda]==0.4 -f https://storage.googleapis.com/jax-releases/jax_cuda_releases.html

Make sure to check compatibility with TensorFlow, Reverb, and LaunchPad. You may need to adjust versions according to your setup.

Understanding the Concept of Magi Agents

The Magi library comes equipped with various popular RL algorithms such as Soft Actor-Critic (SAC), DrQ, SAC-AE, and PETS. To fully utilize these agents, visit the magi agents section.
