Large language models (LLMs) have made rapid progress such as writing code, generating and curating data and running experiments
These advances has led researchers to speculate that LLMs are able to build better versions of themselves, a process called recursive self-improvement
The idea underpins predictions that we may be on the verge of an intelligence explosion that could quickly lead to AI superintelligence.
Nonetheless, the research results suggest that today’s models still have some way to go before they can tackle the challenging problems that will cause an explosion of intelligence.
