> It can identify promising candidates for analysis, such as molecules with particular properties in drug discovery, or materials with the characteristics needed in batteries or solar cells. It can sift through piles of data such as those produced by particle colliders or robotic telescopes, looking for patterns. And AI can model and analyse even more complex systems, such as the folding of proteins and the formation of galaxies. AI tools have been used to identify new antibiotics, reveal the Higgs boson and spot regional accents in wolves, among other things.
Wonder how much AI is actually doing here, and how much it's just paper hype, in the same way that AI companies have been shown to actually just use human resources (until they figured out the AI part ;]), I wonder how much these were just to juice up the paper a little bit.
