arXiv:2606. 08251v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bold projections that artificial intelligence will accelerate scientific discovery have raced ahead of evidence from working scientists, and the field still lacks large-scale, scientist-in-the-loop tests of these claims.

arXiv:2606. 05104v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge benchmarks for LLMs face three issues: scaling-driven designs that do not operationalize disciplinary representativeness; flat-payment annotation that permits lazy consensus; and unaudited ranking instability under bounded test budgets.

The paper introduces SciMuse, an AI system that generates personalized research ideas by combining a knowledge graph of 58 million papers with a large language model. A large-scale evaluation involving over 100 research group leaders across disciplines rated more than 4,400 ideas, yielding modest overall interest scores but showing that 24.9% were rated highly. The study also demonstrates that graph-derived features can predict idea interest and can be used to control idea properties, offering a new methodology for generating and assessing scientific ideas.
