This talk introduces recursive coding agents, applying the principles of Recursive Language Models (RLMs) to enhance the reliability and capability of AI agents for coding tasks. The core thesis is that current AI agents, while intelligent, are "mismanaged geniuses" lacking a robust system for specifying, managing, reusing, and verifying their work. RLMs offer a new paradigm for inference-time computation by unifying tool calling and reasoning, enabling agents to recursively break down and solve complex problems.
