Polymathic AI: A New Frontier in Scientific Discovery with AI
New Delhi – Scientists from around the world have joined forces to embark on a groundbreaking research initiative that harnesses the transformative technology underpinning ChatGPT. Aptly named “Polymathic AI,” this endeavor seeks to create an AI-powered tool for scientific discovery. While ChatGPT excels in processing words and sentences, Polymathic AI takes a different route, learning from numerical data and physics simulations spanning various scientific disciplines. Its primary mission is to assist scientists in modeling a wide array of phenomena, from supergiant stars to the Earth’s climate.
Shirley Ho, the principal investigator of Polymathic AI, and a group leader at the Flatiron Institute’s Center for Computational Astrophysics in New York City, shared her perspective on this revolutionary venture. She stated, “This will completely change how people
