A new optimization framework, Optimization with Trace Oracle (OPTO), is proposed to automate the design and update of AI systems like coding assistants, robots, and copilots. This framework uses generative models, such as Large Language Models (LLMs), within an optimizer for automatic updating of general computational workflows. The OPTO framework is shown to be effective in a variety of domains, including first-order numerical optimization, prompt optimization, hyper-parameter tuning, robot controller design, code debugging, and more.

Automating the design and update of AI systems can make them smarter and more efficient. Researchers have developed an innovative way to do this using something called Optimization with Trace Oracle (OPTO). OPTO is a new framework that helps create smart AI systems like coding assistants, robots, and copilots. It uses special models called Large Language Models (LLMs) to improve the performance of these systems.
