First merged summary.

Merged summary · x-ai/grok-4.7 · rewritten as coverage arrivesSummaries by Vani AI

SwarmEvolve uses latent-space agent swarms sharing KV caches to solve 21 math problems in median 3-8 minutes.

SwarmEvolve deploys swarms of low-cost LLM agents that reason directly in latent space by sharing KV caches instead of decoding to text. A novelty filter measures hidden-state distances to preserve distinct ideas while a summarizer agent enables natural crossover. The approach outperforms AlphaEvolve on 21 mathematical discovery tasks, achieving highest scores faster than prior methods that take up to 60 minutes.

Key facts
  • Median time 3-8 minutes to top scores on 21 problems
  • Hundreds of low-cost agents per evolutionary round
  • Novelty filter uses direct hidden-state vector distances
  • KV cache sharing enables efficient idea crossover
  • Improves on AlphaEvolve with Qwen3 8B
  • Applies to mathematical discovery and scientific computing
