arXiv:2606.02863v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI-Driven Research Systems (ADRS) -- systems coupling LLMs with automated evaluation to discover algorithms, proofs, and designs -- are being optimized and adopted across domains, but the tools to analyze them have not kept pace. ADRS performance depends on component interactions that are poorly understood, expensive to explore, and (as we show) not well captured by standard convergence guarantees. These guarantees rely on structural assumptions that do not hold under the ADRS process we formalize. We introduce GAMBLe, a framework that decomposes
The proliferation and increasing complexity of AI-Driven Research Systems (ADRS) necessitates new analytical frameworks to understand their performance and limitations.
Understanding and optimizing ADRS is critical for accelerating discovery across scientific, engineering, and commercial domains, impacting long-term R&D efficiency and innovation.
The introduction of GAMBLe provides a structured way to analyze and improve AI-driven research systems, moving beyond heuristic optimization and standard convergence guarantees.
