MIT Tech Review dives into the gap between AI-discovered materials and actually manufacturing them at scale Lila Sciences is working on bridging that "lab to fab" challenge - arguably the biggest bottleneck in turning AI's material predictions into real-world impact. The discovery algorithms have outpaced our ability to validate and produce what they find.

AI materials discovery now needs to move into the real world

The microwave-size instrument at Lila Sciences in Cambridge, Massachusetts, doesn’t look all that different from others that I’ve seen in state-of-the-art materials labs. Inside its vacuum chamber, the machine zaps a palette of different elements to create vaporized particles, which then fly through the chamber and land to create a thin film, using a technique…
