Google’s Pichai says AI self-improvement still in early stages

Google CEO Sundar Pichai has indicated that the development of AI recursive self-improvement (RSI) remains in an early stage, suggesting that current AI systems are not yet fully autonomous in their model-building capabilities. This statement comes amid ongoing efforts by Google’s DeepMind division, which utilizes AI loops and agents to assist human researchers in developing AI models. Despite advancements, Google has not observed notable end-to-end acceleration in AI research and development across various benchmarks. Pichai’s remarks suggest that the industry is still far from achieving fully autonomous AI systems capable of self-improvement without human intervention.
