Generalized Agent Iteration formalises RSI

What's this about?

GAI distinguishes who performs improvement and whether evaluation is externally anchored, separating bounded policy improvement from goal drift and self-referential loops (19 HF upvotes).

What exactly is external evaluation anchor?

A success criterion that the improving agent cannot rewrite for its own convenience. Without it, a better score may simply mean the agent changed the definition of success.

What's the community saying?

19 HF upvotes; conceptual preprint, not a capability demonstration.
  1. Significance: RSI claims become more comparable.
  2. Significance: objective drift is separate from genuine improvement.
  3. Significance: formal taxonomy needs empirical application.
