Scientists spent 10 years on a superbug mystery - Google's AI solved it in 48 hours
The co-scientist model came up with several other plausible solutions as well
Cutting corners: Researchers at Imperial College London say an artificial intelligence-based science tool created by Google needed just 48 hours to solve a problem that took them roughly a decade to answer and verify on their own. The tool in question is called "co-scientist" and the problem they presented it with was straightforward enough: why are some superbugs resistant to antibiotics?
