How to build an AI scientist: first peer-reviewed paper spills the secrets
AI Scientist, an autonomous research tool, first released in 2024, has now undergone peer review, highlighting its strengths and limitations.

AI Research Assistant Claude Scholar: Open Source, Free, and Citation-Verified | João Cláudio Nunes Carvalho posted on the topic | LinkedIn
🚨 Professors are going to hate this. Someone just open sourced an AI that writes research papers from idea to publication. Conference-ready. Citation-verified. Free. It's called Claude Scholar. An AI-powered research system that handles every step of the academic workflow. Idea to publication. Fully automated. No advisor at 2am. No staring at blank LaTeX files. No crying during rebuttal season. Here's what's inside this thing: → AI brainstorms research topics, reviews literature, and finds gaps nobody has explored → Runs statistical analysis on your experiments. t-tests, ANOVA, ablation studies. Publication-ready figures. → Writes your paper section by section. Abstract to conclusion. Conference-formatted. → Verifies every citation through multi-layer validation so AI never hallucinates a reference → Strips robotic AI language and adds human voice so reviewers can't tell → Self-reviews your draft with a 6-point quality checklist before you submit → Parses reviewer comments, classifies each one, and drafts your entire rebuttal Here's the wildest part: It supports NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, AAAI, Nature, Science, Cell, and PNAS. Downloads the conference template, strips sample content, and gives you a clean LaTeX structure ready to write into. The creator says it covers 90% of the academic research lifecycle. Research assistants charge $30 to $60/hour. Conference paper consultants charge $5,000+. Graduate programs cost $50K/year. This is free. All of it. 100% Open Source.
