Scalable Artificial Intelligence for Science: Perspectives, Methods and Exemplars

Abstract: In a post-ChatGPT world, this paper explores the potential of leveraging scalable artificial intelligence for scientific discovery. We propose that scaling up artificial intelligence on high-performance computing platforms is essential to address such complex problems. This perspective focuses on scientific use cases like cognitive simulations, LLMs for scientific inquiry, medical image analysis, and physics-informed approaches. The study outlines the methodologies needed to address such challenges at scale on supercomputers or the cloud and provides exemplars of such approaches applied to solve a variety of scientific problems.
