The Past and Future of AI Scientists

We present a survey of the past and future of AI Scientists: machines capable of automating science. AI Scientists can originate hypotheses, deduce their consequences, design and execute experiments, interpret their results, and revise their beliefs. Such systems are integrated scientific agents, connected to the literature, formal knowledge, mathematical models, simulations, data-analysis systems and physical laboratories. Adam was the first machine to make novel scientific discoveries through cycles of hypothesis formation and physical experimentation. Eve established the architecture of t
