Japanese tech startup Sakana AI has written the first AI-generated peer-reviewed scientific paper.

Its AI program, AI Scientist-v2, successfully passed a peer review process, and the paper was accepted at a workshop during the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR), a major event in AI.

The AI-generated paper underwent the same review process as human submissions, with Sakana AI collaborating with the University of British Columbia and the University of Oxford.
