FROM THE FRONTIER

AI is fueling scientific breakthroughs — but not in the way most people think

Made with Midjourney

AI breakthroughs. With how quickly AI is advancing, it’s easy to imagine that Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini are schooling scientists on how to crack humanity’s toughest questions. Not quite. But while AI isn't uncovering scientific breakthroughs on its own just yet — the researchers wielding it are.

Data excavation. AI can’t dream up new physics. But it does give researchers a unique superpower: the ability to analyze data and run experiments at a scale no human could ever achieve. This superpower is fueling breakthroughs across dozens of domains, including genomic data, biological interactions, and deep-space imagery.

In the lab. NASA scientists have used AI to surface 800 previously undocumented cosmic anomalies after scanning 100M images. University of Michigan researchers have built a model that reads and diagnoses brain MRIs in seconds with 97.5% accuracy. And DeepMind’s AlphaFold is compressing breakthroughs that used to take months into a single weekend.
