We’ve published Vol. 5 of our weekly commentary on global Climate and AI news. ✨📝
This edition covers 10 key stories, including a16z investing in Physical AI, JERA’s view that global decarbonization will not stop, and how renewed tensions in the Middle East are reigniting the push for domestic energy security, exposing the world’s dependence on the Strait of Hormuz.
A closure of the Strait of Hormuz would have a major impact on Japan’s energy security. More details on NOTE below. 👇

[9] a16z invests in industrial robotics company Mind Robotics as AI moves into the physical world of factories
[8] Texas power prices could rise by as much as 79% as data center demand surges
[7] Products do not sell themselves: how to build a world-class sales team
[6] Data is AI’s biggest bottleneck: Protege launches DataLab, an AI data research institute
[5] U.S. coal pollution surges under the Trump administration’s coal policy, marking the largest increase in 25 years
[4] Washington State moves around the Trump administration’s coal-life-extension order, effectively shutting down coal generation through heavy taxation

Everyone’s missing the real story here.
This isn’t a “prompting technique.” The paper is called Recursive Language Models, not “Recursive Meta-Cognition.” And the authors aren’t random researchers grinding for citation counts.
Omar Khattab created DSPy, which has 31,000+ GitHub stars and changed how people build compound AI systems. Tim Kraska pioneered learned index structures with Jeff Dean at Google and runs MIT’s Data Systems and AI Lab. Alex Zhang is a PhD student working at the intersection of both.
The actual paper addresses a specific problem: LLMs degrade on long context. The graph shows GPT-5 performance collapsing as input length scales from 2^14 to 2^21 tokens, while RLMs maintain stable performance. They’re handling inputs 100x beyond context windows.
The key insight from Khattab’s own Twitter: “Most people misunderstand RLMs to be about LLMs invoking themselves. The deeper insight is LLMs interacting with their own prompts as objects.”
This extends Khattab’s entire research arc. DSPy turned prompts into programmatic modules. ColBERT made retrieval smarter. RLMs turn context itself into something the model can manipulate like data in memory.
Prime Intellect, one of the leading decentralized AI labs, is already building on this. They wrote that RLMs will let them “teach models to manage their own context end-to-end through reinforcement learning” for agents running across weeks or months.
The real trade? This solves a constraint that every AI lab faces: context windows are a hard ceiling. Expanding them through architecture and training is expensive. RLMs offer an inference-time approach that works with existing models.
But watch for the catch: this requires models that can write and execute code reliably. The benchmarks use GPT-5 in a Python REPL. Models with weaker code generation will struggle to implement the recursive decomposition cleanly. The technique scales with code capability, not just reasoning capability.
