It's an agent system that autonomously discovers neural architectures that beat Llama 3.2 at 350M, 1B, and 3B scales, all under a 24-hour compute budget.
They get this work by splitting the search into two agents:
> AIRA-Compose searches the macro architecture.
> AIRA-Design implements the low-level mechanisms.
For devs:
If one agent in your stack is doing both strategy and implementation, split it. Run a planner that picks the structure and an implementer that fills in the mechanisms.
AIRA shows this beats a single end-to-end agent on a real, non-toy search problem. The same split is useful for pipeline assembly, query planning, prompt scaffolding, and tool-use programs.
