Cutting-edge AI tool for scientific discovery unveiled
India TV NewsAn international team of scientists have launched a new research collaboration that will leverage the same technology behind ChatGPT to build an AI-powered tool for scientific discovery. "This will completely change how people use AI and machine learning in science," said Polymathic AI principal investigator Shirley Ho, a group leader at the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Astrophysics in New York City, US. The idea behind Polymathic AI "is similar to how it's easier to learn a new language when you already know five languages," said Ho. "Polymathic AI can show us commonalities and connections between different fields that might have been missed," said co-investigator Siavash Golkar, a guest researcher at the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Astrophysics. Polymathic AI's project will learn using data from diverse sources across physics and astrophysics and apply that multidisciplinary savvy to a wide range of scientific problems.
