AI for Meta-Science: Scaling and Organizing Science in the Age of AI Scientists
Abstract
The use of AI in science production and evaluation has been growing in the past few years. With the advent of AI scientists and powerful agentic systems, we face opportunities and challenges in transforming the scientific ecosystem to accommodate this new reality. We propose our workshop on AI for Meta-Science~(science study). We aim to address challenges around the deployment of agentic AI systems in scientific processes and bring together researchers from meta-science, AI, peer review, and evaluation science with conference organizers, journal editors, and ArXiv moderators to address these challenges. We believe that this workshop provides a much-needed platform for the community to discuss and develop ideas and build the future of the scientific enterprise.
