As the AI Engineer World's Fair Expo kicked off, a group of scientists gathered for an informal get-together to discuss how this new technology is affecting their profession.
"I work in chemistry, so hallucinations are still a big problem," organizer Scott Reed, a professor at the University of Colorado Denver, told us. "But the bigger picture I've opened up is that science@AIE provides a better forward face for AI, that there's benefits, and that people don't only see the downside."
Generally, the news is positive. When it comes to coding research apps, AI can be a boon, so long as the code is checked carefully, since scientific notations are sometimes misconstrued or mistaken.
With physical testing, there's still a way to go, however. As one academic from the University of Southern California who develops turbines put it, "Put the bolt in the wrong place, and the engine will sling a blade into the next state."
