Open-Source Demo: AI Agent Reverse-Engineers Black-Box Golf Physics in Closed Loop
burny_tech · x · 2026-09-03
PMocz open-sourced golfautoresearchdemo, a closed-loop scientific discovery exercise: a realistic golf-ball flight model sealed in a black box, and an AI agent that can only hit balls and read a launch monitor must design its own experiments and reconstruct the governing physics. The author imagines scaling this into an "institute of agents" with physics verifiers and AI-native orchestration.
