Also i wouldn't be surprised they have(or are investing in) specialized search engines for innovations. Something that scans tons of research papers and finds interesting things. Maybe something like this:

- cryoshon 11y agoA Watson-like artificial intelligence for aggregating research trends is a near certainty; I bet that they are shooting for an even higher target, perhaps incorporating suggested experiments to clarify areas of theoretical or practical uncertainty.
- petra 11y agoI don't think it's just aggregating research trends - but actually reading the literature - and connecting various things to discover hidden knowledge and hidden connections between things. But sure, they would definitely be looking into automated discovery engine that including both intelligence and experimentation.
