Google has created a JI tool to accelerate scientific research

The “work” assistant helps scientists identify gaps in their knowledge and offers ideas that can accelerate scientific discoveries, writes the newspaper. “Within the framework of our project, we are trying to understand if a” co -inverted “technology with artificial intelligence, to provide” higher scientists, “said the senior researcher in Google in the field of clinical research by clinical research by Alan Kartkesaling.

The first tests of the new Google tool demonstrated promising results, writes Ft. In particular, the “CO -Investigator” was able to draw the same scientific conclusions about the new gene mechanism of gene transfer, which explains the resistance to antimicrobial drugs , as scientists from the Imperial College of London. However, the “co -operador” did this in a few days, while the university team of Imperial College needed years to study the problem.

“We believe that this tool can change our approach to science,” said José Penades, a professor at the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Imperial Diseases, which was part of the study of the new gene transfer mechanism.

A Google Vivek Natarajan researcher explained that the “co -investigator” involves several intellectual agents who mimic the scientific process: one of the agents generates scientific ideas, the other understands and analyzes. The model can also process scientific articles and specialized Internet databases, which provides researchers in the form of a classified list of sentences with explanations and links to sources.

Previously, on February 12, Microsoft researchers and the University of Carnegie Mellon (USA) came to the conclusion that excessive use of AI at work can weaken critical thinking and negatively affect cognitive skills, including The ability to analyze information. As a result of the frequent use of AI, employees lose “routine opportunities to train judgments and strengthen cognitive skills, which makes them not prepared for non -standard situations,” says the article.
