I'm thinking of a less than ambitious angle to the use of AI or at least parsing algorithms: cross referencing commonly researched subjects and methods. If say a certain method seems to yield less than ideal results it would be nice to know if someone else figured out the problem well in advance of any laboratory work. Feeding that sort of information into a computer would be dead simple since I assume most methods are easily categorized as it is.
