Sakana AI unveils Agentic Scientist for automated research
Sakana AI has introduced The Agentic Scientist, a comprehensive framework intended to automate computational scientific discovery. This system uses coding agents to manage the entire research process, from initial ideas to generating evidence. It provides a structured environment for these agents to handle concept generation, running experiments, evaluating results against criteria, and producing documentation. Sakana AI reported that a preliminary version of this system collaborated on a machine learning paper that was accepted for an oral presentation at ALIFE 2026.
