The Last Remote Sensing Model Built by Humans? Casting Any Earth Observation Task as Recursive Self-Improvement
This is a concrete demonstration of agents replacing human model builders in a real domain. The shift from task-specific expertise to verifiable harnesses is significant: it means EO model development can scale without domain specialists. For builders: if you're working in remote sensing or similar domains with clear verification signals, this suggests you should be writing harnesses, not training loops. The label efficiency is also notable for cost-sensitive applications.
