Researchers have developed Mycelium, a novel active shared workspace designed to enhance human-AI collaboration in scientific endeavors. This system automatically connects researchers and AI agents, capturing and routing observations and hypotheses to the most relevant team member or AI agent. Mycelium was tested in a biological multi-omics campaign, where its context-routing capabilities transformed a local analytical finding into a cross-expert mechanistic constraint and guided experimental design. The system's computational framework treats networked intelligence as sparse conditional computation over distributed scientific contexts, distinguishing when a scaled standalone agent can match the network versus when independent expertise makes the network irreducible.
