Wonyong Li, former OpenAI safety VP, proposes a new path for AI self-evolution, suggesting it should begin with the external operating system (Harness) rather than directly modifying model weights. This Harness system manages tool usage, context, task splitting, and result validation, and can be iteratively improved based on observed failures. Researchers like Cui Tianyi from DeepSeek agree that improving Harness is a promising avenue for AI advancement, potentially leading to significant performance gains without altering the core model.
