On the 31st March, our editorial team headed to the Royal Society for AI for Science. This day-long conference explored how AI is changing the nature of scientific discovery, and was hosted by the Alan Turing Institute.

The recordings from the event are now available on YouTube and are well worth a watch.

Opening the conference:

Anna Scaife – AI in Astrophysics: Foundation Models for Discovery in Data-Intensive Astronomy

Aron Walsh – Materials on Demand

Scott Hosking – AI for Climate: From Messy Data to Decision-Making for National Resilience

Lorenzo Zanisi – Putting the Sun in a Bottle with AI

Miles Cranmer – The Extrapolation Problem
