Originally published on Towards AI.

AlphaDev uncovered a faster algorithm for sorting, a method for ordering data. Billions of people use these algorithms every day without realizing it

Just when you started to think as ChatGPT is common enough that hype is dying down and 99 other large language models can replace it, a new approach to developing code may have shown the true potential of the generative AI and reinforcement learning to be far more superior than the conventional optimization of the code. AlphaDev has released a paper that proves that AI can write far superior code, and everyone can benefit from it.

For the last few decades, we have been testing the limits of Moore’s law. Especially for the good ole algorithms like sorting were mainly enhanced… Read the full blog for free on Medium.
