- Recorded checker
- Hapax Research Labs source review; no independent replication claimed. The checker is quoted as recorded; the record uses an earlier form of the lab’s name.
- Scope
- Coding benchmarks in the reported Darwin Gödel Machine experiment; not deployment-wide or economy-wide.
- Darwin Gödel Machine — version 3 ↗Abstract: benchmark gains, iterative modification, sandboxing and oversight.
This supports bounded self-improvement; it does not establish an autonomous, general research loop or independent replication by this lab.
The next question is whether the reported gains transfer to a different task distribution under a declared evaluation protocol. This source check alone does not answer it.
