Researchers let Claude Code discover AI scaling algorithms that humans probably wouldn't have designed
Quick Take
Researchers used AutoTTS to let an AI discover efficient scaling algorithms, reducing compute by 70%.
Key Points
- AI discovered algorithms independently, surpassing human design.
- Achieved 70% compute reduction while maintaining accuracy.
- Search cost was only $40 and took 160 minutes.
Article Excerpt
From source RSS / original summaryResearchers from UMD, Google, Meta, and other institutions use AutoTTS to let a coding agent independently discover control algorithms for AI reasoning. The algorithm it found cuts compute by about 70 percent compared to standard self-consistency while matching its accuracy. The whole search cost $40 and took 160 minutes.
