A preliminary roadmap for AI-assisted science

I am building a community to think about the ideas below. If you are excited about them, get in touch! Contact details at the bottom. The goal of biology research is to cure disease, allow us to live long and healthy lives, feed the planet, and fight climate change. However, as I have written before, progress in biology today is too slow for us to accomplish most of these goals within our lifetimes. How can we make it go faster? AI-powered agents offer the best opportunity we have had in decades to accelerate the pace of research in biology and throughout science. The impact of AI-powered agents on science will be at least as large as the genome, or significantly larger. In this essay, I will provide a preliminary answer to the question of what impact these agents will have on science, and what technical challenges we need to overcome to realize that impact.
