If we get AI singularity, then humans will stop doing scientific progress altogether. But if we don't, then it's pretty predictable what's going to happen - things will be much the same as now, except everyone will be using AI for proofs, data analysis, theoretical models and designing experiments, so important discoveries will happen more often. It's also possible that after the AI craze dies down, we'll have enough computational capacity to solve protein folding.
