releasing RL environments and documenting how AI is actually being used to automate AI research, with the goal of demystifying recursive self-improvement and giving researchers and policymakers a clearer picture of what frontier systems can and cannot do.
Their goal is a closed loop where the system being improved is also doing the improving, across components including models, harnesses, and eventually more of the AI stack.
closing that loop still doesn't guarantee runaway "takeoff," and why measuring real progress requires accounting for both capability gains and the resources required to achieve them.
