A Taxonomy of Self-evolving Agents

A Taxonomy of Self-evolving Agents

AI X
Shilong Liu proposes a taxonomy to categorize self-evolving agents into three types: artifact optimization, harness self-improvement, and model learning.
What: The framework distinguishes evolution occurring in output artifacts, agent infrastructure, or model weights, offering a structured language for evaluating systems like the Hermes Agent and RSI Lab's recursive algorithm discovery.
Why it matters: Standardizing terminology is necessary to move agent research beyond anecdotal success stories toward repeatable engineering practices.

A Taxonomy of Self-evolving Agents

Self-evolving agents are becoming popular. Hermes Agent enables automatic reusable skills. RSI Lab tries to discover new algorithms recursively.
