Artificial intelligence, or AI, is now enabling robust new advances in the materials science world. Combined with the abilities of high-performance computing and hybrid cloud technologies, AI is helping materials scientists accelerate discoveries of new materials and improve predictive modeling of their properties. Peter Crozier, a professor in the School for Engineering of Matter, Transport and Energy, part of the Fulton Schools, explains how blending of AI with electron microscopy to enable more advanced visualization of materials’ dynamics at the atomic level could open pathways to advances in areas such as electronics, industrial materials and pharmaceuticals.
