AlphaEvolve team

A year ago, we introduced AlphaEvolve, a Gemini-powered coding agent for designing advanced algorithms. We showed that AlphaEvolve can help make new discoveries on open problems across mathematics and computer science, and optimize algorithms that have since been deployed across critical parts of Google’s infrastructure.

Today, because algorithms are part of nearly every aspect of life, the landscape of what AlphaEvolve can achieve is even broader. From helping explain the physics of the natural world to powering electricity grids and computing infrastructure, there are countless ways AlphaEvolve can help accelerate progress for scientists and businesses across a variety of fields.

We’re excited to share a collection of AlphaEvolve’s most significant impact to date.

Driving social impact and sustainability

AlphaEvolve has helped uncover key connections in health and sustainability research.

In genomics, AlphaEvolve was used to improve DeepConsensus—a model developed by Google Research...
