We envision ÁI scientists' as systems capable of skeptical learning and reasoning that empower biomedical research through collaborative agents that integrate machine learning tools with experimental platforms. Rather than taking humans out of the discovery process, biomedical AI agents combine human creativity and expertise with AI's ability to analyze large datasets, navigate hypothesis spaces, and execute repetitive tasks. AI agents are proficient in a variety of tasks, including self-assessment and planning of discovery workflows. These agents use large language models and generative models to feature structured memory for continual learning and use machine learning tools to incorporate scientific knowledge, biological principles, and theories. AI agents can impact areas ranging from hybrid cell simulation, programmable control of phenotypes, and the design of cellular circuits to the development of new therapies.
