The AI Scientist

2026 AI systems don't just analyze data - they generate hypotheses, design experiments, and even write papers.

Breakthroughs

  • AlphaFold 4: Predicts protein interactions (not just structure)
  • GNoME: Discovered 2 million new crystals
  • GraphCast 2: 10-day weather forecasts in under 1 minute
  • AI Feynman: Discovers physical laws from data

The Automated Lab

"Black-box" labs combine robotics + AI: Specify goal (e.g., "catalyst with X property") and system runs experiments autonomously.
