"Artificial intelligence (AI) has taken centre stage in basic science. The five
winners of the 2024 Nobel Prizes in Chemistry and Physics shared a common
thread: AI.
Indeed, many scientists – including the Nobel committees – are celebrating AI
as a force for transforming science.
As one of the laureates put it, AI’s potential for accelerating scientific
discovery makes it “one of the most transformative technologies in human
history”. But what will this transformation really mean for science?
AI promises to help scientists do more, faster, with less money. But it brings
a host of new concerns, too – and if scientists rush ahead with AI adoption
they risk transforming science into something that escapes public understanding
and trust, and fails to meet the needs of society."
