RRSI
An AI safety framework proposed by Google Research that provides structural constraints for recursively self-improving AI agents through three mechanisms: noise bands, cost rules, and leakage screening. These mechanisms are designed to ensure that the self-improvement process remains stable, economically bounded, and free from data contamination.

Google Research proposed the RRSI (Regularized Recursive Self-Improvement) framework for constraining the recursive self-improvement process of AI agents
The RRSI framework revolves around three core components—noise bands, cost rules, and leakage screens—addressing stability, economic efficiency, and data purity respectively.
The Noise Bands mechanism works by setting threshold intervals so that the system only accepts updates when the magnitude of improvement exceeds the noise level, thereby suppressing performance drift.
The Cost Rules mechanism only permits updates when the gains from an improvement exceed its consumption costs.
The Leakage Screens mechanism identifies and blocks contamination pathways through which test data or evaluation signals mix into the training pipeline.
Developers can improve the reliability of autonomous systems by introducing statistical significance tests for agent self-evaluation, setting resource budgets for iterations, and deploying train/test isolation checks in data pipelines.
RRSI treats safety constraints as an endogenous component of the framework rather than an afterthought patch.
