DeepMind's Pushmeet Kohli says AI is driving a phase transition in scientific discovery, with releases due in weeks.
- 01. Kohli: genuine phase transition; releases in the next few weeks
- 02. DeepMind agents found new weaknesses in legacy 1024-bit RSA; 2048-bit unaffected
Google DeepMind's science lead, Pushmeet Kohli, says his teams are seeing a genuine phase transition in the pace of scientific discovery, with releases to show for it in the next few weeks. Two days earlier, DeepMind said AI agents working with human cryptographers had found new weaknesses in legacy 1024-bit RSA, including a batch method about 30x cheaper per extra key. 2048-bit keys aren't affected. OpenAI's Greg Brockman also said frontier models with lots of test-time compute are becoming the engine of scientific discovery.
