Researchers at the University of Toronto have utilized an AI-driven system to discover six new heat-resistant alloys suitable for 3D printing. These alloys, composed of just nickel, cobalt, and chromium, demonstrate performance comparable to or exceeding existing alloys that contain over ten elements. The AI, employing active learning, significantly reduced the experimental process, identifying promising compositions in mere weeks. AI
