Such support is becoming more critical as supercomputing converges with artificial intelligence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Researchers are already exploring how AI agents can autonomously perform parts of the research process, from generating ideas to designing experiments and analysing results.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe entire research workflow is going to be streamlined and made seamless, powered by very powerful supercomputers,\u201d said Dr Hung. \u201cWe will have AI research agents that will run around the clock non-stop.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
This will allow researchers to explore more ideas and accelerate discoveries beyond what they could achieve on their own, he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat paradigm shift \u2013 where there will be a need for more computer support, large-scale simulation, data analysis, and AI models \u2013 requires a lot of compute power.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dr Hung said he expects researchers’ roles to evolve, with more time spent designing research plans and less time devoted to tasks such as reading papers and running experiments.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo the AI agents in a sense would serve as workers, or research assistants, to support the researchers to do all the things that (they) want to do, but may not have the time,\u201d he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe researchers are still required to be in the loop to steer, advise, monitor, and make sure that the AI agents are doing things according to their plans. They may have to come in and intervene and get the AI agents to redo certain things, or to take a different approach when necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
