Import AI 440: Red Queen AI, AI regulating AI, and o-ring automation

Import AI 440: Red queen AI; AI regulating AI; o-ring automation

Import AI 440 highlights two threads: Sakana used GPT-4 mini to evolve Core War programs, and specialized warriors beat 89.1% of human-designed warriors. The post says DRQ uses MAP-Elites plus matches against prior champions; a separate policy proposal ties AI rules to automatability triggers, with example thresholds of <=1% false positives, <=1% false negatives, and <=$10,000 per model evaluation.

Why it matters: This is a high-signal roundup, not the primary release, so it stays below the 78+ band. HKR-H lands on the unusual 'AI regulating AI' framing; HKR-K lands on the 89.1% result and ≤1% / <$10k thresholds; HKR-R lands on automation and governance nerves.
