Hi All, We have the possibility of a, currently unnamed, donor giving us a very very large AI system. The original approach (I believe) was through the business school but we are trying to broaden this out for the whole college. To this end Richard Craster and Peter Todd have asked us for a short paragraph (just a few lines) on, of order 3, areas where we would use such a facility. For example Sophia Yaliraki has come back with: AI-driven molecular discovery: i) Tackling Antimicrobial resistance (GSK/Fleming Project) ii) Drugging the undruggable targets in disease (Excellence award) and rare diseases (MRC functional genomics cluster) iii) Advanced sustainable materials discovery for energy applications (AIchemy Hub) and is writing short paragraphs on these. So I would like three areas from physics. My initial guesses would probably be: 1. AI approach to modelling climate change 2. AI Modelling fusion 3. Understanding the physics of the universe (either PP or cosmology or both) But these three guesses probably do more to show my ignorance than anything else - I have no idea if AI is at all applicable to climate change or fusion and I am sure that there are plenty of other ground breaking pieces of work that would be changed by having access to a very large AI resource. So please actively search in your communities and come back with suggestions. The timescale is the next few days and as you can see these are not full proposals just areas that will appeal to a donor. Best, david
