What area of basic research are they bemoaning?
Because as I see it, there are a lot of already established labs that could take research like this a lot further with the help of AI instead of just throwing more agents at the problem.
That’s my confusion around this topic. Does the strategy change when you can throw a bonkers amount of compute at the problem with fewer guardrails?
Because you're not understanding the goal. The goal isn't to assist humans in making the discovery. The goal is to develop a system that can autonomously make the discoveries, as this is way more scalable.
