arXiv:2607. 09025v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) is shifting scientific discovery from task-specific workflows towards autonomous systems that organize exploration with experimental and human feedback in open-ended candidate spaces.

Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) systems are beginning to assist, accelerate, and partially automate scientific discovery, performing tasks that span literature synthesis, code generation, data analysis, hypothesis proposal, and model criticism. We argue that this transition is qualitative rather than incremental, and that suitably designed multi-agent systems may evolve from passive computational tools into ``AI scientists'' that can expand the hypothesis-generating and verification capacity of science.
arXiv:2608. 14667v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model-based agents are increasingly deployed as collaborators in scientific discovery yet most current work focuses on the autonomous capabilities of "AI Scientists".

arXiv:2607. 13220v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most AI-for-science systems focus on scaling a single reasoning process through better models, larger context windows, long-horizon agentic execution, or digital co-scientists working with one principal user.
