Researchers let Claude Code discover AI scaling algorithms that humans probably wouldn't have designed
Researchers have developed an AI agent, AutoTTS, capable of independently discovering novel algorithms for controlling AI reasoning. This agent identified a new algorithm that significantly reduces computational costs by approximately 70% while maintaining accuracy comparable to existing methods. The discovery process was remarkably efficient, costing only $40 and taking 160 minutes to complete. AI
IMPACT AI agents can now autonomously discover novel algorithms, potentially accelerating research and optimizing compute efficiency for future AI systems.
