Google published an AI in Science study led by mcodreanu, drawing on:
- 15 million Gemini interactions
- 2,600 specialised AI models
- A survey of 600 scientists
It examines how AI is changing scientific research. Richard Socher reposted it as real-time proof of the thesis of his upcoming book The Eureka Machine: AI will massively accelerate science, which is not zero-sum and will benefit humanity.
