arXiv:2611.07048v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evolution has shaped intelligence for billions of years. Artificial intelligence (AI) now raises a striking possibility: intelligence may begin to direct its own evolution. As AI agents become capable of modifying and evaluating their own behavior, how quickly could they improve, and how can that improvement remain safe? We develop a theoretical framework comparing Darwinian, Lamarckian, and agent-directed evolution following environmental change. Darwinian evolution relies on natural selection, Lamarckian evolution adds inherited learning, and a
