Sakana AI Labs' 'AI scientist' claims to automate the entire process of scientific discovery, from idea generation to paper writing, at an unprecedented low cost.
While the AI system can generate papers that resemble scientific research, the question of whether it generates truly novel insights remains unresolved.
The potential for AI to rapidly produce research raises concerns about the quality and novelty of science, as genuine scientific progress relies on creativity and human intuition.
Good science requires novelty and an understanding that goes beyond mere replication of existing knowledge, which current AI may struggle to achieve.
