What if the fastest path to superintelligence is AI that builds itself? That’s the bet Richard Socher is making — and he has the track record to back it up. A double unicorn founder and early investor in eight unicorn companies (including Perplexity and Hugging Face), Richard has spent 15 years building the foundational research that powers modern AI. Now he’s co-founded Recursive with an elite team from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, and Meta to pursue something more ambitious: a self-improving AI that generates its own scientific breakthroughs — what he calls a “eureka machine.”
Richard joins Oz to unpack how recursive superintelligence actually works and why open-ended AI systems could outpace today’s giants.
