Key points

  • Summary: In this guest post, Prof. Matthew Schwartz returns to describe a new approach to AI-accelerated science.
  • In Vibe Physics, Schwartz discussed similarities in capability between Claude and a physics graduate student.
  • Because similar calculations often turn up across very disparate areas of science, Claude found connections to ecology, population genetics, and a dozen other fields.
  • However, academic scientists trying to use the models today in their own work often feel a disconnect.
