Recursion at inference time—rather than simply scaling model size—may be the next breakthrough in AI reasoning. Recent research on Hierarchical Reasoning Models (HRM) and Tiny Recursive Models (TRM) demonstrates that recursive architectures using shared weights can solve complex reasoning benchmarks like Arc Prize with minimal parameters, outperforming massive traditional LLMs.
