Well, I mean Anthropic did previously cite RLM that's what caused all the credit-assignment arguments to snowball. The current workflows feature imho go a step *against* RLM (as precisely defined): less REPL more upfront-orchestration -- which is interesting concept to discuss if it wasn't for the naming disagreements! As for the non-technical stuff, the discussion of research as discovery vs. invention is not one that's suitable for this format though ;-)

@alexjc @willdepue @georgejrjrjr They cited them on the idea of programmatic context discovery (actually the part everyone is saying is the most obv) But if u see the blogs I linked, other aspects from RLM can provide big gains and things that Anthropic and cursor made blogs and introduced months after RLMs
