Google researchers find a way to keep self-improving AI agents from memorizing their tests

Self-improving AI agents tend to memorize their test tasks, so their gains shrink or disappear on new ones. RRSI, a new method from Google researchers, reins in this effect and lifts scores on unseen benchmarks by up to 4.7 points while using about 30 percent fewer tokens than an unregularized…
