Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An independent research project exploring an AI that can revise problem definitions, inspect its own computation, and preserve useful changes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-01 issue.
For
Long-running AI teams and hypothesis-testing researchers
Worth noticing
Its 3 + 5 example is explicitly hypothetical, and the interactive “body” diagram is human-designed—not connected to Xiaomai’s model.

Field notes

The proposed investigation traces input, representation, computation, and output, then tests candidate mechanisms through ablation, replacement, restoration, counterexamples, and controls. The page says Python is a temporary execution and inspection tool; it also distinguishes saved notes or parameters from the still-unverified ability to reuse a change after restart and on a new task.
