How AI Can Help Us Make New Materials

The traditional way of discovering new materials is going into a lab and trying to physical and chemical structures that could combine to create the material the scientist wants. This can be very time consuming and may not even yield any results. However, with the use of artificial intelligence, this process can become much easier and quicker for scientists. All scientists need to do is tell AI the type of material they want, and the AI would tell them the best experiment to run to make the new material. AI could also be used to store all the procedures to make certain types of materials, which would make accessing information much easier. The use of AI in material science would speed up creation of new materials.
Currently, MIT is trying to make the use of AI even more accurate by teaching it to read databases and come up with new recipes on its own.
