TorontoAI agents wrote 200-plus robot-arm commands after testing them virtually.
Setting up an automated lab usually means slow trial and error, then troubleshooting.
A scientist describes the programme, and the agents build a virtual lab, test protocols there, then direct the real robots.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology bioengineer Evan Collins says the cameras and sensors the agents need could take more resources than manual setup.
The preprint has not been peer reviewed, and its one reported test measured nanocrystals’ optical properties.
