Stanford researchers find AI agents improve when guided by past successes

4 days ago | the-decoder.com | Maximilian Schreiner

Summary A new study from Stanford University finds that AI agents can get much better at solving complex tasks simply by learning from their own successful experiences. So far, building effective AI agents has often meant a lot of manual effort: fine-tuned prompts, handpicked sample sets, or specialized action spaces. These methods work, but they are time-consuming and hard to scale.
