> Although we don’t yet know its function

That's not quite how science works, Dear Anthropic.

Also, I would like to know what further associations exist. Has Anthropic filed any patents with this regard? Those promo-articles are only aimed at making a company look great. We need to know the fine details too. After all you could fully automate a modern lab, no need for humans (all the lab work you can have robots do; China already does that, and if AI agents operate, you really don't need any human - so why does Anthropic use humans? Something is missing in that picture here clearly).
