Publications
Do AI Agents Need Mentors? Evaluating Chain-Pattern Interrupt (CPI) for Oversight and Reliability
2025
- Formalizes RLI as a key AI failure mode for AI agents tackling complex, long-horizon tasks
- Proposes deploying an external meta-cognitive oversight layer for Chain-Pattern Interrupts (CPI) to interrupt and correct errors at runtime
- Data supports CPI-style oversight reduces failures and increases success; across 153 runs, agent success with CPI increased from 27% to 54% and harmful actions fell; pooled OR 1.98 (CMH = 0.099)
Recursive Self-Referential Compression (RSRC): AI's Survival Map in the Post-Scaling Era
2025
- Introduces RSRC as a framework addressing limitations of brute-force AI scaling methods, thermodynamically and economically
