SUMMARY:SimTech Colloquium: Towards an artificial muse for new ideas in Science (Mario Krenn)
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence (AI) is a potentially disruptive tool for physics and science in general. One crucial question is how this technology can contribute at a conceptual level to help acquire new scientific understanding or inspire new surprising ideas. I will talk about how AI can be used as an artificial muse in physics, which suggests surprising and unconventional ideas and techniques that the human scientist can interpret, understand, and generalize to its fullest potential.[1] Krenn, Pollice, Guo, Aldeghi, Cervera-Lierta, Friederich, Gomes, Häse, Jinich, Nigam, Yao, Aspuru-Guzik, On scientific understanding with artificial intelligence.

Previously, he was a research group leader at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in Erlangen, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Toronto in Canada, and completed his PhD in quantum physics at the University of Vienna under Anton Zeilinger (Nobel Prize 2022). Dr. Krenn’s research develops artificial intelligence to enhance human creativity in scientific discovery, particularly in quantum physics. His AI methods have autonomously designed quantum experiments and hardware, several of which have been realized experimentally. His ERC Starting Grant project ArtDisQ (2024) aims to transform physics simulators with advanced AI, accelerating discoveries in quantum technologies.\n\n\n\n
