Method to the Madness: How AI is Transforming Science
“Highly engaging” - David Wallis, New Venture Incubation at Google DeepMind
“A strongly recommended read” - Dr. Krishnan, Applied Data Scientist at Siemens
“This book is bold!” - Andrea G. Aguilar, Editor in Chief, Stanford Social Innovation Review en Español
As the power and scope of AI continues to explode, so too have questions about its impact on science. Once a technology used by few scientists, AI has recently become a key enabler of groundbreaking scientific discoveries—some of which have been recognised with the Nobel Prize.
Maverick scientists are working with AI to understand the mysteries of the human body, design new drugs and carbon-capturing materials, predict the weather with unprecedented accuracy, and unravel the secrets of the molecular world. And they have only begun to scratch the surface of what’s possible.
Method to the Madness offers the general reader a way into this vital and complex technology. Cutting through the hype, it explains what AI can offer us, defines the difference between intelligent and creative machines, explores the huge potential of AI agents and semi-autonomous AI scientists, and looks to the future of AI—its likely evolution and how it might spearhead innovation in the years to come.
