        If you’re talking OpenEvolve you have to specific put in the tests and expected values for each function for this approach to work.

          Not just OpenEvolve, I’m talking about how agents can use MCP to run code now. Cursor can now have agents iterate on a solution completely on their own.

              Genetic algorithms use a fitness function to converge on a solution, so it’s not just random iterations hoping one will work. It’s basically a gradient descent algorithm applied to output from LLMs.
