Miles Brundage, a former OpenAI policy researcher, says on X that the phrase "Recursive self-improvement (and we'll figure out later what role humans play)" has the same problem as Tesla's "Full Self-Driving (Supervised)".

He argues both labels are vague enough to satisfy critics while misleading about what the goal actually is. The post is his only report so far; it names no specific company or AI lab as the source of the phrase.
