Chinese researchers have invented an artificial intelligence (AI) system that facilitates chemical research and experiments, according to the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in Hefei City, Anhui Province.

The all-round AI-Chemist system is equipped with a scientific mind that is capable of performing all essential steps required for chemical research, according to researchers from the USTC.

The system realizes automatic data collection, processing, analysis and visualization. It is designed to be able to automatically search for and read relevant literature from a cloud database and propose experimental plans accordingly.

It can also control a mobile robot in-house or online to automatically execute the complete experimental process on more than 10 workstations.

The experimental data can be simultaneously analyzed by the computational brain of the AI-Chemist, allowing it to propose a new hypothesis for the next iteration.

The competence of the system was tested by three different chemical tasks, said a research article published in the journal National Science Review of China.
