Researchers have developed a closed-loop framework called \"method\" for molecular inverse design, which uses a large language model (LLM) to reason over task instructions, optimization history, and oracle feedback. This approach aims to increase the fraction of generated molecules that match desired property profiles. Experiments on drug and material design tasks indicate that \"method\" outperforms one-shot prompting and is competitive with or superior to Gaussian-process-based Bayesian optimization baselines. The framework provides an inspectable optimization trace in natural language, with domain-dependent performance variations observed. AI
