Google's Quest to Tame Self‑Improving AI
Google researchers have been working on methods to control self‑improving AI agents, first releasing an open‑source RRSI framework and later discovering a technique to stop these agents from memorizing test data. The latest breakthrough shows they can prevent overfitting, moving the field closer to safe, generalizable AI development.
