Understanding Recursive Self-Improvement and Meta-Learning
The pinnacle of machine learning is recursive self-improvement through meta-learning, where the machine learns to improve itself and the way it learns. This involves modifying the learning algorithm, evaluating the consequences of the modification, and learning from it recursively, with the goal of creating a better learning algorithm.
