Want an AI agent to run repeated experiments without checking every attempt yourself? This brain helps you design an experiment loop with a clear goal, a fixed evaluation, a time or compute budget, and rules for keeping or discarding changes. Explore what makes a result trustworthy before giving the agent more freedom.

  • What would a first experiment loop look like for my project?
  • How do I choose a metric and decide which changes to keep?
  • The score improved, but the result got worse. How should I check the evaluation?

Describe what you want to improve, how you measure it, and what the agent may change. You can discuss a bounded first experiment, including adaptations beyond machine-learning training.
