#alphadev — Public Fediverse posts

#Google #DeepMind used a #largelanguagemodel (#LLM) to solve an unsolvable #math problem
First #AlphaTensor found a way to speed up a calculation at the heart of many different kinds of #code, beating a 50-year record. Then #AlphaDev found ways to make key algorithms used trillions of times a day run faster.
They had to throw away most of what it produced but there was gold among the garbage. https://www.technologyreview.com/2023/12/14/1085318/google-deepmind-large-language-model-solve-unsolvable-math-problem-cap-set/

#AI #AIAlgorithms #Algorithms #DeepMind #AlphaDev #ComputerScience #SortingAlgorithms: "DeepMind published its results in Nature today. But the techniques that AlphaDev discovered are already being used by millions of software developers. In January 2022, DeepMind submitted its new sorting algorithms to the organization that manages C++, one of the most popular programming languages in the world, and after two months of rigorous independent vetting, AlphaDev’s algorithms were added to the language. This was the first change to C++’s sorting algorithms in more than a decade and the first update ever to involve an algorithm discovered using AI.

DeepMind added its other new algorithms to Abseil, an open-source collection of prewritten C++ algorithms that can be used by anybody coding with C++. These cryptography algorithms compute numbers called hashes that can be used as unique IDs for any kind of data. DeepMind estimates that its new algorithms are now being used trillions of times a day."
