We’re definitely approaching a tipping point. Astra is the only model I’ve used which is smart enough to manage its own “memories” with reasonable success. Before this, Fable was the premier model and it was -frankly- completely incapable in this regard. I haven’t bothered digging into Opus 5.5 as it’s compared to Sol, which I only use for basic tasks.
I’ll be watching to see if the next generation of AI improves in this area. Once this is the case, the system described in the article could lead to some wild capabilities.
Until then, I suspect it will result in a “delusion spiral”, where the AI’s self improvement is untethered to reality and produces worse results in practice.
Edit: I could be lacking in creativity and background knowledge though. You could use this in isolation, with AI surrounded by experts, and only use training runs where AI was highly successful.
