This article has some great examples, but there are MANY it does not mention. Here are just a few others I think are super cool (links to media articles, papers are typically linked to within article):

AI is just a tool, and is increasingly becoming a big part of scientists' toolsets. I don't know if it's fair to say it will lead to a scientific revolution, but it's impacts will most certainly be vast.
Self-plug warning: I know of all of these articles because I run the newsletter Last Week in AI (lastweekin.ai) and co-host its related podcast (https://www.lastweekinai.com https://www.lastweekinai.com). We've covered a dozen or more of these types of stories, and new ones keep showing up. So it's definitely a big trend IMHO.
