Hexo Labs Open-Sources SIA: A Self-Improving Agent That Updates Both the Harness and the Model Weights
Hexo Labs released SIA, an open-source self-improving loop, under an MIT license. A Feedback-Agent reads each run's trajectory, then either rewrites the scaffold or triggers a LoRA weight update on gpt-oss-120b. Combining both levers beat scaffold-only iteration on LawBench, TriMul GPU kernels, and ...
AI Weekly Issue #497: Anthropic and OpenAI are taking over governments
This was the week the frontier labs stopped being vendors. OpenAI now runs inside US biodefense and Japan's three biggest banks, and it just mapped its own safety rules to EU and California AI law. Meanwhile China unveiled an LLM that automates satellite targeting. Workforce policy is splintering: C...
