AlphaEvolve: A Gemini-powered coding agent for designing advanced algorithms


New AI agent evolves algorithms for math and practical applications in computing by combining the creativity of large language models with automated evaluators

Beyond performance gains, AlphaEvolve significantly reduces the engineering time required for kernel optimization, from weeks of expert effort to days of automated experiments, allowing researchers to innovate faster. AlphaEvolve was developed by Matej Balog, Alexander Novikov, Ngân Vũ, Marvin Eisenberger, Emilien Dupont, Po-Sen Huang, Adam Zsolt Wagner, Sergey Shirobokov, Borislav Kozlovskii, Francisco J. R. Ruiz, Abbas Mehrabian, M. Pawan Kumar, Abigail See, Swarat Chaudhuri, George Holland, Alex Davies, Sebastian Nowozin, and Pushmeet Kohli.
