MIT researchers have created a new tool that helps artificial intelligence design materials with exotic quantum properties. The tool, called SCIGEN, guides AI models to follow specific design rules when creating new materials. While companies like Google, Microsoft, and Meta have used AI to generate millions of new materials, these models often miss the mark when it comes to creating materials with special quantum properties. SCIGEN changes that by forcing the AI to follow geometric patterns that are linked to quantum behaviors. “The models from these large companies generate materials optimized for stability,” says Mingda Li, a professor at MIT. … Continue reading MIT’s SCIGEN Tool Forces AI to Design Quantum Materials: 10M Generated, 2 Successfully Synthesized
