Latent Space: Lilian Weng distills 35 papers on 'Harness Engineering' for recursive self-improvement

Latent Space·medium signal

AINews (Latent Space) covers Lilian Weng's synthesis of 35 papers on harness engineering for recursive self-improvement (RSI) — the emerging discipline of building the scaffolding (tools, memory, evaluation loops) that lets agents improve themselves. It's a high-signal reading list for builders designing self-improving agent systems rather than one-off prompt chains.
