Yaroslav Bulatov's project uses an AI coding assistant to reproduce Schmidhuber's papers from 1990 to 2025. hardmaru highlighted that it even reproduces their co-authored "World Models" paper, with a toy env featuring a full VAE + RNN world model. kzkirie notes it also covers the Neural Data Router (ICLR 2022), tying into today's popular shared-layer/looped/universal transformer work on reasoning and generalization. Open-sourced on GitHub, it doubles as both a paper-reproduction archive and a case study in AI-assisted research engineering.
