For most laboratories in the world these days there is no vacation. And much less at the University of Aberystwyth, in Wales (United Kingdom), where Adam , the first scientific robot , has just joined the staff.
Without any human help, Adam is able to formulate hypotheses , create and conduct experiments , interpret the results, and make new scientific findings. The key lies in your artificial intelligence , which allows you to acquire knowledge for yourself. To prove this, Adam worked alone in analyzing a yeast that scientists use to model more complex life forms. The researchers conducted parallel experiments and reached the same conclusions as the robot.
After the success, its creators have put to work on a new scientific machine, called Eve (Eva) , which they predict will be “a genius” in the search for new drugs to combat, for example, malaria.
