Not sure what you mean, we are seeing results at an increasing pace if anything. A lot more complexity going into it than 'increasing text/GPUs' though.

AlphaEvolve recently achieved what you are after.

We also applied AlphaEvolve to over 50 open problems in analysis , geometry , combinatorics and number theory , including the kissing number problem.

In 75% of cases, it rediscovered the best solution known so far.

In 20% of cases, it improved upon the previously best known solutions, thus yielding new discoveries

AlphaEvolve discovered a new scheduling heuristic for Google's Borg cluster management system, recovering an average of 0.7% of global compute resources that were previously stranded due to resource fragmentation.

Google's annual capital expenditures in the tens of billions, this efficiency translates to hundreds of millions of dollars saved annually
