AI system Coscientist autonomously learned and executed Nobel Prize-winning chemical reactions, showcasing the potential of large language models for scientific breakthroughs.#AIScience
In a scientific breakthrough, the AI-driven system 'Coscientist' autonomously mastered Nobel Prize-winning chemical reactions, including palladium-catalysed cross couplings. Developed by Carnegie Mellon University, the system utilizes large language models, akin to GPT-4, for experimental planning, execution, and analysis. This marks the first instance of non-organic intelligence successfully navigating and performing complex reactions invented by humans, pointing towards AI's transformative role in accelerating scientific discoveries. The integration of AI in research processes showcases its potential to enhance productivity, replicability, and reliability in experimental results.
