Programming Intelligence: Using Symbolic Rules to Steer and Evolve AI

🧪 Summary

“What if AI systems could learn how to improve themselves not just at the level of weights or prompts, but at the level of strategy itself? In this post, we show how to build such a system, powered by symbolic rules and reflection.

The paper Symbolic Agents: Symbolic Learning Enables Self-Evolving Agents introduces a framework where symbolic rules guide, evaluate, and evolve agent behavior.

Adaptive Reasoning with ARM: Teaching AI the Right Way to Think

Summary

Chain-of-thought is powerful, but which chain? Short explanations work for easy tasks, long reflections help on hard ones, and code sometimes beats them both. What if your model could adaptively pick the best strategy, per task, and improve as it learns?

The Adaptive Reasoning Model (ARM) is a framework for teaching language models how to choose the right reasoning format direct answers, chain-of-thoughts, or code depending on the task. It works by evaluating responses, scoring them based on rarity, conciseness, and difficulty alignment, and then updating model behavior over time.
