Genetic algorithms have existed since the 60s / 70s, e.g. computers learning to play a game. LLMs aren’t particularly guide at it.

I think hyperparameter tuning may actually be a kind of genetic algorithm.

Hyperparameter tuning could be done by genetic algorithm. I think it’s a bit of a category error to say that it is a genetic algorithm though.

Hyperparam tuning is usually done by Bayesian Optimization though.

Yeah that’s correct, it could use it, but there are better alternatives for this particular problem.
