What Is This?
AI can now carry out research autonomously — from generating ideas and running experiments to writing full papers. This repository tracks the open-source ecosystem making that happen.
| Without these tools | With these tools |
|---|---|
| You spend weeks reading literature | AI reads 500 papers in 10 minutes |
| You manually iterate on experiments | AI runs overnight loops: tweak → run → score → keep or revert |
| You write papers from scratch | AI generates camera-ready LaTeX drafts with figures |
| You review your own blind spots | AI self-reviews, cross-checks, and iterates |
43 projects tracked as of 2026-04-03.
