Math & ScienceThe AI experiment ran. Did it test the right thing?When an agent helps run an experiment, researchers need to know both what it actually did and whether someone else can repeat it.
Math & ScienceThe AI proposed a molecule. The lab still had to find out if it worked.A virtual team designed candidates against a virus. Then human researchers had to find out which ones worked in the physical world.
Math & ScienceWhat happens to the questions AI makes inconvenient?AI can accelerate discovery, but research incentives also influence which questions get asked.
