AI is flooding science with claims no one can check. The quieter story: agents now reproduce most published findings — and that is the bigger deal.
Fable 5 and GPT-Rosalind show frontier AI moving into scientific workflows. The next bottleneck is not intelligence, but evidence.
Anthropic showed a general model can rival ChemDraw at NMR. The real story for scientists: the bottleneck has moved from the model to the workflow around it.
