With agentic AI’s rapid infiltration into science, researchers need to develop AI use policies and practices.
It dawned on me in early March this year, on the Caribbean island of Barbados, of all places. Konrad Kording, in swimming trunks, stood in front of about 30 PIs with backgrounds mostly in neuroscience and machine learning and live-demoed Claude Code, using a projector hardly visible in the broad daylight. He asked Claude to build a web app, and within minutes it was ready to test. The demo—designed to show how independently agentic AI could now solve tasks—presented the perfect picture: human in swimming trunks, machine working hard. What struck me wasn’t only the scope of the change…
