Researchers have developed a new method called "Code to Control" that synthesizes Python controllers for real-time AI control tasks. This approach separates the controller's structure, generated by an LLM, from its parameters, which are optimized using derivative-free search. The resulting controllers execute directly as policies, eliminating the need for LLM inference or planning at decision time, thus enabling faster action selection than traditional methods like Proximal Policy Optimization. Code to Control has demonstrated strong performance across various Atari games, Flappy Bird, and MuJoCo tasks, showing competitiveness with deep reinforcement learning while requiring fewer interactions and exhibiting transferability across different environment dynamics.
