Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory use a slew of autonomous robots to design and ...

Scientists are building autonomous robotic labs powered by artificial intelligence. The goal, they say, is for these robots to take over human researchers' most laborious, time-consuming tasks.

The race to develop a virtual scientist — an AI creation that conducts every stage of research, from idea to publication — has consumed researchers, start-up founders, and tech juggernauts alike. It ...

If artificial intelligence is going to revolutionize the way science is done, as many of the frontier AI laboratories hope, it needs to master board games first. That’s the lesson from a recent study ...

Artificial intelligence is helping researchers advance their careers and drill deeper into specific questions, but it is not necessarily benefiting science on the whole. As the people who study ...

AI in science is changing how researchers approach discovery by making complex problems faster to solve and easier to understand. Across fields like biology, chemistry, physics, and climate studies, ...
