AI Agent 'Elements Claw' Discovers New Superconductors, Speeding Up Materials Science
Alibaba DAMO Academy, Renmin University, and UCAS have unveiled Elements Claw, the first AI agent for discovering superconducting materials. It screened 68,000 candidates from 2.4 million crystal structures in just 28 GPU hours, and four new superconductors have been synthesized, including one designed from scratch. This marks a shift from AI as a tool to an autonomous researcher.
