NVIDIA Demos Autonomous Coding Agent for Experiments
NVIDIAAI · x · 2026-07-15
NVIDIA explained how they gave a coding agent a goal and a time budget to:
- Set up a training environment
- Teach a vision model to count colored stars
- Autonomously complete training and evaluation
- Allow researchers to only oversee the process
By utilizing Autoresearch + NeMo RL + NeMo Gym + reusable skills, the accuracy of Qwen3-VL-2B surged from 25% to 96.9%. NVIDIA noted that the agent can even propose the next experiments on its own.
