Qumus: Realization of An Embodied AI Quantum Material Experimentalist
While modern Large Language Models (LLMs) and agentic artificial intelligence (AI) have demonstrated transformative capabilities in digital domains, the realization of embodied AI capable of real-world scientific discovery remains a difficult frontier. The advancements are hindered by the inherent complexity of integrating high-level reasoning, multimodal information processing and real-time physical execution. Here we introduce Qumus, the first AI quantum materials experimentalist. Physically embodied within a robotic mini-laboratory, Qumus is an intelligent, multimodal, and multi-agent system designed for the creation and nano-processing of atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials...
