Agentic AI systems are designed to interpret user requests, select the appropriate models or tools, evaluate intermediate outputs, and refine their decisions over multiple steps. This iterative reasoning loop enhances the segmentation process significantly.
There's vastness far closer to us that transcends even the stars. It may seem impossible but there are, in fact, more possible chemical compounds in our world than stars across the sky. And it's not close: A conservative estimate suggests the number of small, drug-like molecules out there is somewhere around 10^60, while the number of stars in the observable universe lingers around 10^22 (perhaps 10^24 by some estimates).
Beyond the chatbots and productivity tools that have dominated public attention, AI is extending the reach of cutting-edge science and helping scientists globally tackle some of the greatest challenges facing their communities. This profound shift remains underappreciated-and it is leaving the technology's immense benefits largely untapped. Unlocking AI's potential to accelerate science is a defining goal for both of us.
