Researchers use large language models to discover recipes for novel materials

Researchers at the University of Rochester have developed an artificial intelligence-based method that uses large language models, similar to ChatGPT, to help chemical engineers discover and manufacture new materials, potentially accelerating efforts such as converting carbon dioxide into fuel. The approach allows researchers to describe desired materials in natural language, receive AI-generated recommendations for experimental […]
