LLMs used to build MaxSAT solver from research papers

Researchers explored the use of large language models (LLMs) to construct a MaxSAT solver, named CoreForge, by interpreting research papers rather than relying on existing codebases. The iterative process involved discussions with ChatGPT, code generation via Codex prompts, and LLM-assisted code audits. While the LLM-assisted approach demonstrated potential in implementing solver components and passing evaluations, the resulting solver's performance did not match that of manually engineered solvers, highlighting the need for human oversight and external validation. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates LLMs' capability in complex code generation from research, though human oversight remains critical for performance.
