OpenAI’s GPT can summarize research papers and make predictions—but can it do science? Can it generate hypotheses, design experiments, interpret results and iterate? Last summer researchers at OpenAI ...

Artificial intelligence is rapidly learning to autonomously design and run biological experiments, but the systems intended to govern those capabilities are struggling to keep pace. This is ...

Scientific discovery is often portrayed as the result of long hours alone in a lab, but true science is inherently collaborative. The most robust experimental processes are developed through ...

Open-ended experiments that engage students with a “need to know” factor rather than a “cookie-cutter” approach are key, say veteran science teachers.

Editor’s note: This is part of a series called “The Day Tomorrow Began,” which explores the history of breakthroughs at UChicago. Learn more here. A field experiment is a research method that uses ...
