The people at DeepMind took the same approach as they had with chess and Go: They turned code optimization into a game.The AlphaDev system developed x86 assembly algorithms that treated the ...

It’s useful to have AI come up with a new sorting algorithm; it’s a much bigger deal to build an AI that can learn how to write state-of-the-art code across a variety of tasks, he says.

The AI-generated algorithms are already being used by millions of developers. DeepMind’s run of discoveries in fundamental computer science continues. Last year the company used a version of its ...

AlphaDev operated at the level of assembly instructions: code generated by automated compilers from code that programmers write in C++, before it is translated into the 1s and 0s of machine code.

Google’s Bard, a recently launched chatbot, can now write software code, according to an announcement from the tech giant. The move comes as Google tries to play catch-up with OpenAI’s ChatGPT ...

This can present many challenges to the developer since there is little insight or understanding of the underlying code. In a recently published white paper, we examine how SLX FPGA is used to take a ...
