| hello author here. yes, it gives labs edge and leads to self-recursive improvement loops. also i was myself able to finish 7th in a later competition with 2-3 other approaches which are variants of the method discussed in this blog. in general, having a harness as thin as possible with some problem specific instructions while controlling for context rot is the key. point i am trying to make is there are a lot of optimisation surface areas possible. |

| I don't know. That just sounds like throwing money at a problem until it goes away. I'm not convinced that is the correct path forward. |

2. they will have domain experts working on this so their efficiency is gonna be exponentially more (can direct LLM better, save money, reach same results faster) | | |

This recursive self improvement stuff lets you be closer to the pareto frontier, but the idea that it is leading to some exponential growth is a total pipe dream. |

| Does the edge matter? I know you added significant as your hedge, but once you have feedback, your gain is largely irrelevant. Gain buys you bandwidth, so we are constructing systems run by the most powerful corporations where they are now optimizing for latency, as Archer says, do you want to flash crash civilization? This is how you do it. |
