Recursive launches Flint, a laptop coding model it says was largely built by AI
Startup Recursive has released Flint, a free, laptop-sized coding model built largely by its own AI research system, as an early test of AI that improves itself.
Recursive , an AI startup founded last year, is starting to live up to its name. The company, which is trying to build AI that can improve itself, released its first model, Flint , on Wednesday. Flint is a free coding model that can run on a laptop and was built largely with the help of AI.
Recursive’s automated research system, which it calls the Eureka Machine, helped with nearly every step of Flint’s development, the company says. That let a small team build the model from scratch in under four months.
