About
What happens when AI systems can learn from their own work, improve their strategies, and get better over time? In this hack, hosted by Sundai in partnership with the Harvard Innovation Labs, we explore recursive learning: systems that use their own outputs, experience, feedback, or generated data to improve future performance. Researchers, hackers, and AI builders are welcome — come see how far we can push AI systems that learn how to learn.
