Two new AI-powered science assistants have demonstrated success in drug repurposing tasks, according to recent publications. Google's Co-Scientist operates as a "scientist in the loop" system, where researchers guide its hypothesis generation and testing. A separate system from FutureHouse goes further by evaluating experimental biological data autonomously. Both tools are designed to help researchers manage the overwhelming volume of scientific literature and identify potentially relevant information across different fields. AI
