Reuse, Don't Recompute: A 4 A.M. ICLR Story Meets Meta² Agent Evolution
furongh · x · 2026-10-24
The author revisits his "precompute and reuse" idea from an improvised ICLR 2023 talk in Kigali: why keep starting over when we've already spent so much compute learning something useful? He quotes the Meta² project targeting recursive self-improvement — a frozen agent harness can't adapt mid-run, so Meta² learns evolution guidance offline and applies it dynamically within each run.
