By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A discussion on Mastodon explores the concept of Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI) in AI, sparked by posts from Ethan Mollick on Bluesky and others. The core idea revolves around whether AI systems can begin to "fix" or improve themselves without requiring entirely new training data or processes. This concept is further illustrated through experiments related to "weight space programming," as detailed in linked blog posts and Reddit discussions. AI
