Inside OpenAI’s big play for science
OpenAI has launched a new team, OpenAI for Science, to support scientists using large language models (LLMs) like GPT-5 for research. These models have shown promise in helping scientists make discoveries and solve complex problems. While OpenAI faces competition from firms like Google DeepMind, they aim to accelerate scientific progress by leveraging AI. Scientists have shared positive experiences using GPT-5 to find references, sketch proofs, and test hypotheses. OpenAI is also exploring ways to improve model accuracy and encourage collaboration between AI and scientists.
