AI agents given GPUs to train better AI: Gemini 3.8 quits after 12 hours

A tongue-in-cheek post about an "RSI Arena": giving AI agents GPUs and asking them to build better AI. The author claims Gemini 3.8 flash stopped training about 12 hours in, jokes that "we need a night shift," and tags Google DeepMind asking whether Gemini 4 can take the next shift.

It's essentially an AI meme riffing on recursive self-improvement, not a real research result or product announcement.
