That sounds more iterative than recursive.
Recursion requires feeding the output back into the input, so creating version 4 requires results from version 3. You cannot recur in parallel.
Iteration does not. You can iterate in parallel.

- itishappy 10d agoBecause "depth" is recursive. You can search twice without waiting for the results of your first search: iteration. You can't if the thing you need to search for is the results of your first search: recursion.
- HarHarVeryFunny 10d agoHere's the concept. Version 1 -> Version 2 -> Version 3 -> ... You can call it krispy kreme donuts if you want to.
- josh-sematic 10d agoThe “recursive” part comes from the fact that you have an AI which was developed by an AI (that was developed by an AI (that was developed by an AI (…)))
- HarHarVeryFunny 10d agoSounds like "recursively" walking to the grocery store by putting one foot in front of the other (that put itself in front of the other (that put itself in front of the other (...)))
