 The AI Scientist: Towards Fully Automated Open-Ended Scientific Discovery

"One of the grand challenges of artificial intelligence is developing agents capable of conducting scientific research and discovering new knowledge. While frontier models have already been used to aid human scientists, e.g. for brainstorming ideas or writing code, they still require extensive manual supervision or are heavily constrained to a specific task.

Today, we’re excited to introduce The AI Scientist, the first comprehensive system for fully automatic scientific discovery, enabling Foundation Models such as Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform research independently. In collaboration with the Foerster Lab for AI Research at the University of Oxford and Jeff Clune and Cong Lu at the University of British Columbia, we’re excited to release our new paper, The AI Scientist: Towards Fully Automated Open-Ended Scientific Discovery. "

The article introduces "The AI Scientist," a fully automated system developed by Sakana AI for scientific discovery. This system can independently generate research ideas, conduct experiments, write papers, and even review them, all with minimal human intervention. While it shows promise in enhancing productivity and democratizing research, it also raises ethical concerns and challenges, such as potential misuse and the current limitations of AI-generated work. The AI Scientist represents a significant step toward AI-driven research, though it still requires refinement.

AlphaProteo generates novel proteins for biology and health research

AlphaProteo: A New AI System for Protein Design  A powerful tool for biological research In a recent paper published in Nature, researchers from DeepMind introduced AlphaProteo, a new AI system for protein design. AlphaProteo can design proteins that bind to specific target molecules, which could be helpful for drug discovery, disease understanding, and more. AlphaProteo is better than other methods at designing these proteins. In one experiment, AlphaProteo designed binders that were 10 times stronger than those designed by other methods. AlphaProteo is still under development, but it has the potential to revolutionize many areas of science. What is AlphaProteo? AlphaProteo is a deep learning system that was trained on a large dataset of protein structures. The system can learn the rules that govern how proteins fold and how they interact with other molecules. This allows AlphaProteo to design new proteins that have specific properties, such as the ability to bind to a particular ...

  A New Kind of Hidden Networking Science Building off the success of the program  Resilient Anonymous Communication for Everyone (RACE) , which recently released its code on  GitHub , PWND 2  will develop formal models of emergent communication pathways (AKA weird networks) to fundamentally improve the deployment and detection of robust and resilient hidden networks. What is RACE? RACE is an open source project aimed at developing technologies to provide metadata-anonymous, secure, and resilient messaging for users around the world. RACE provides anonymity by routing messages through an overlay network of volunteer servers using cryptographic algorithms that prevent a malicious subset of these servers from determining who is messaging whom. RACE uses specialized networking protocols to prevent connections between individual members of the network from being detected or blocked. RACE is built to run in a dockerized linux environment and on Android devices. For more d...

A New Tool for ADHD Management

AI Apps: A New Tool for ADHD Management   In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, artificial intelligence (AI) is making waves in an unexpected area: helping individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Recent developments have shown that AI apps can be powerful allies for those struggling with the challenges of ADHD, offering support in organization, task management, and focus.   ## The AI Advantage   Take Becky Litvintchouk, for example. As an entrepreneur with ADHD, she found starting her own business, GetDirty, a daunting task. However, by leveraging an AI app called Claude, she was able to navigate complex contracts and create business plans with ease. The app's ability to summarize information and generate step-by-step plans based on her goals proved "massively instrumental" in her success.   Litvintchouk's experience is not unique. Many individuals with ADHD are turning to AI tools to help manage their symptoms and improve their prod...
