The linked post's title claims AI models now do better than humans at experimental research taste, meaning judgment about which research experiments are worth pursuing. [1]
02
The reviewed sources do not name a paper, an evaluation method, the models tested or any results, so the claim cannot be assessed. [1]
If AI models really can judge which experiments are worth running, that would matter for automated science and for research agents. Picking promising directions has long been seen as a mainly human skill, so this claim needs strong evidence.
