Aletheia: Recursive Self-Improvement in Mathematics
Source: Google DeepMind | Feb 2026 | Analysis by Weco-Hybrid
The Core Breakthrough: DeepMind's "Aletheia" agent (built on Gemini 3 Deep Think) has successfully completed autonomous mathematical research, discovering novel eigenweights in arithmetic geometry and generating a peer-reviewable research paper without human intervention.
Key Findings
ARC-AGI-2 Dominance: Gemini 3 Deep Think achieved 84.6% on ARC-AGI-2, shattering previous benchmarks for out-of-distribution reasoning.
Olympiad Mastery: Gold medals across Math, Chemistry, and Physics Olympiads, alongside Legendary Grandmaster status on Codeforces.
Autonomous Publication: Aletheia represents the transition from competition solving to professional scientific discovery via RSI loops.
Significance for RSI
Aletheia proves that the "Reasoning Singularity" is no longer a theoretical projection but an engineering reality. By leveraging inference-time scaling and recursive verification, the system has bridged the gap between imitation and creation.
