Sakana AI's pipeline ideates, codes, runs experiments, and writes the paper — then reviews itself. Notes on what an autonomous research loop says about supervision.
A self-referential framework where the agent monkey-patches its own logic toward a high-level goal. Notes on the design space it opens — and the supervision problem it sharpens.
Professionals made of software. Each one has a name, an email, a phone line, a profession, and a sponsor who supervises it. You don't adopt KynDI. You hire it.
You supervise. AI executes.
The FDA pattern applied to film: drop the rushes, get a first cut you can direct. Built by a founder trained in performance and story, not timelines and codecs.

The FDA pattern applied to French bookkeeping: an assistant with its own inbox does the entries, a real accountant signs off, and the e-invoicing mandate is handled natively.
