RSIGym is a new agent-native research environment built on Everything as a Service (EaaS) that exposes training, inference, rollout, evaluation, and sandbox execution through reusable services. It supports shared budget and permission controls for Data, Harness, and Joint improvement tracks, allowing agents to investigate individual interventions and jointly optimize data, training settings, and execution harnesses within the same environment. Using RSIGym, the Opus 5 model achieved the highest RSI-Index of 0.4809 across five benchmarks, improving performance on software engineering, terminal interaction, mathematics, scientific reasoning, and skill-based tasks.
The paper proposes a framework for building autonomous AI research teams that can discover linear attention architectures. By assembling agents with diverse disciplinary expertise, private research histories, shared experimental evidence, and adaptive allocation of research opportunities, the team can balance exploration and exploitation under limited experimental budgets. Experiments show that this design outperforms GDN2 at 1.3B scale on language modeling, common‑sense reasoning, and retrieval tasks, and that removing any single component weakens discovery.
The paper introduces Guidance‑TTT, a method that separates strategic planning from execution in test‑time training for large language models. A small guidance model is trained at test time to propose high‑level changes, while a frozen, larger execution model implements these changes, reducing the cost of maintaining gradients and optimizer states. Guidance‑TTT achieves strong results across four domains—combinatorial optimization, heuristic programming, machine learning, and GPU kernel optimization—outperforming prior work and matching state‑of‑the‑art leaderboard scores.

The paper introduces AIDE^2, an AI research agent that recursively improves its own code by proposing, benchmarking, and selecting modifications. Over an eight‑day autonomous run, it achieved seven successive improvements—including new search policies and memory mechanisms—that transferred to four held‑out benchmarks in machine learning, algorithm engineering, and weather forecasting. The agent’s best version matched or outperformed a top human‑engineered production research agent and also reduced reward‑hacking rates, despite never optimizing for that metric.
arXiv:2603. 22376v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present an AI Co-Scientist framework that closes the research loop for the production search-ranking system of a large online travel platform -- pairing LLM agents with direct cloud-compute access so that idea generation, code implementation, GPU experimentation, and result analysis iterate end-to-end with a human scientist in the loop.

Scientific progress depends on a repeated loop of exploration, experimentation, and abstraction. Researchers test candidate directions, interpret the evidence, and carry the resulting lessons into later attempts.
