DeepMind just dropped a bombshell. Their first fully autonomous research facility launches in the UK next year.
No joke - AI algorithms paired with robotics will design experiments, gather data, analyze results. The whole nine yards.
What about humans? We get front-row seats. That's it.
This isn't some distant sci-fi fantasy anymore. Automated scientific discovery is happening. The question isn't if AI researchers will match human capabilities - it's when they'll surpass them.
The era of silicon scientists begins now.

NGL, humans are really going to lose their jobs now. The first round of layoffs for research migrant workers is pending.

ngl this feels like the same hype cycle we saw with gpu mining back in 2016... everyone screaming "revolution" but nobody talking about the actual computational costs. what's the power consumption on these autonomous labs gonna look like? 💀
