Building an AI Physicist: ChatGPT Co-Creator’s Next Venture

Former researchers from OpenAI and Google DeepMind, Liam Fedus and Ekin Dogus Cubuk, discuss their new venture, Periodic Labs. They aim to create an 'AI physicist' by integrating large language models with real-world, iterative experiments, moving beyond simulation to solve fundamental challenges in physics and chemistry, starting with high-temperature superconductivity.
