[FRIAM] How did I miss this

[Marcus Daniels]

I’ve experimented with using Claude to write new heuristics and cutting plane plugins for integer solvers.   Claude easily writes the needed API contract for the solver (I use SCIP), but I found that its heuristics weren’t novel or surprising to me – things from the literature.    Still a remarkable achievement, but not at all what Cris is getting at 20 minutes into his remarks.

Cris simply nails it. I love that he is out there producing invitations for the world.
