Recursive AI: The Future of Self-Teaching Machines
Recursive AI represents a significant evolution in artificial intelligence, where machines begin teaching themselves rather than relying solely on human input. This transformation marks a shift from agent-based systems to a form of AI that adapts and evolves by using its existing knowledge to identify gaps and seek new learning. Similar to human development, recursive AI learns from its experiences, creating a self-reinforcing cycle of improvement. This self-directed learning allows AI to exhibit curiosity, generate novel insights, and even approach a form of synthetic intuition. The concept introduces a new era where AI systems continuously grow, adapt, and innovate, leading to more creative and intelligent applications. Recursive AI has the potential to revolutionize fields like healthcare, finance, and education, fostering AI systems that evolve alongside human progress. However, it also brings challenges in terms of governance, ethics, and safety, necessitating careful regulation as AI continues to rewrite its own learning processes.

Yoga, AI, and the Inner Operating System
In this episode of Foresight Radio, we explore the surprising—and deeply thought-provoking—intersection of yoga and artificial intelligence with Sunil Malhotra, author of YogaI. Through a series of insightful reflections and excerpts from our conversation, we examine how AI is forcing us to rethink what it means to be human, why our fragmented world needs more inner clarity than external speed, and how ancient wisdom might hold the key to navigating our high-tech future. This isn't just a conversation about technology—it's a journey into consciousness, identity, and the operating system within.

The Dawn of Agentic AI and Digital Workers
Tom Koulopoulos dives into autonomous “agent-based AI”—advanced digital workers capable of managing projects, making decisions, and negotiating contracts. Major players like OpenAI and Salesforce are driving this trend, with open-source options opening doors for smaller businesses. Tom interviews Jack Crawford, who references Colonel John Boyd’s “OODA loop” to explain how these AI agents can drastically accelerate decision-making. They explore the potential of AI-driven code development, administrative tasks, and strategic problem-solving, noting that widespread adoption may happen within months. While it raises questions about job displacement, Tom and Jack agree that, ultimately, humans will focus on higher-level innovation and value creation alongside these new digital coworkers.
