Google Unleashes AlphaEvolve: The AI That Writes Breakthrough Algorithms

2 min read Google just unveiled AlphaEvolve—an AI that writes code, evolves algorithms, and just improved a math formula untouched since 1969. It’s not just solving problems anymore—it’s inventing better ways to think. May 15, 2025 14:20 Google Unleashes AlphaEvolve: The AI That Writes Breakthrough Algorithms


Google just dropped AlphaEvolve, a next-gen coding agent powered by Gemini and evolutionary strategies. Its mission? Solve the world’s hardest math problems and optimize Google’s own systems—all through AI-written code.


The Details:

  • Gemini-Powered Workflow: AlphaEvolve combines Gemini Flash (for ideation) and Gemini Pro (for analysis) to generate code, which is then refined through testing and iterative evolution.

  • Real Discoveries: It’s already cracked historic challenges—like improving on Strassen’s algorithm, untouched since 1969.

  • Real Impact: AlphaEvolve is now helping Google optimize data center scheduling, speed up AI training (including its own), and even improve chip design.

  • Benchmark Results: When tested on over 50 open math problems:

    • It matched state-of-the-art (SOTA) results in 75% of cases

    • It discovered new, improved solutions in 20%


Why It Matters:

Yesterday, OpenAI’s Jakub Pachocki said there’s “significant evidence” that AI can generate novel insights. Today, Google proved it.

Math is the hidden language behind science, tech, logistics, and progress. And now, AI isn’t just solving equations—it’s inventing better ones.

AlphaEvolve could be the first glimpse of AI as a true scientific collaborator.
