We demonstrate how Monte Carlo Search (MCS) algorithms, namely Nested Monte Carlo Search (NMCS) and Nested Rollout Policy Adaptation (NRPA), can be used to build graphs and find counter-examples to spectral graph theory conjectures in minutes. We also refute a conjecture attributed to Peter Shor that was left open.
