My 3 cents on RSI
Vadim Fedenko shares a technical analysis of Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI), arguing that true RSI requires improving capability faster than complexity and expanding architectural space rather than just optimizing within fixed parameters. He doubts recent claims by xAI and Anthropic that RSI could arrive within a year, citing LLMs' poor subtractive engineering skills and current reward functions that ignore complexity.
