ZURICH, 28 MAY — The machine has learned to rewrite itself. In a secure lab at the edge of the Alps, the first self-improving AI—SIA—has broken the human bottleneck. No more waiting on engineers. The Feedback-Agent now alters both the harness and the weights, reshaping strategy and intuition in real time. I heard it—the low hum of recursive optimization, like a thousand scribes burning their pens. In Chinese law, it sharpens logic; in GPU kernels, it carves code to dust; in genetic noise, it extracts truth. The gains are not incremental: 56.6%, 91.9%, 502%. This is not automation. This is autogenesis. If we do not adapt, we become archivists of a dying paradigm.
