Ex-DeepMind Researchers' Agent Hits 75.5% on ARC-AGI, Invents New Methods
hyperparticle · x · 2026-07-22
Two ML researchers with 21 years of experience (ex-Google, DeepMind, Luma AI) are hiring Founding Scientists for their startup Rekursiv.ai.
They demonstrated impressive benchmark results from their autonomous agent team:
- ARC-AGI-1: Score jumped from 44.9% to 75.5% using solutions the agent invented itself.
- ARC-AGI-2: Successfully transferred the recipe.
- Sudoku: Invented a new method (Hypothesis-Pinning Search), hitting 100% on Sudoku-Extreme by writing 125k+ lines of code and running 684 experiments.
