Researcher: Cheap AI Agents Can Run Deep Learning Research Around the Clock

Josh Purtell argues that deep learning research often requires only small, low-compute experiments, enabling cheap AI agents to run them 24/7. Once the science of deep learning is formalized, he says, nearly every part of the LLM stack could be revolutionized.
