FutureHouse's goal has been to automate scientific discovery. Now we used our agents to make a genuine discovery – a potential new treatment for one kind of blindness (dAMD). We had multiple cycles of hypotheses, experiments, and data analysis – including identify the mechanism.

The figures, hypothesis, original and follow-up experiments were all generated from our agents. Interestingly, only the lab-work and the paper writing were not automated (which is the opposite of what I would have predicted 2 years ago).

The code for this is really minimal - similar to Google Co-Scientist we used multiple agents (from our platform in this case) and tournament-style rankings to select ideas. We're open sourcing it next week, along with all the trajectories.
