What is an artificial intelligence research agent?
Definition
An artificial intelligence research agent carries out several stages of research rather than returning one answer. It can formulate questions, search sources, operate software, run experiments and organize results.
Research autonomy requires traceable sources, bounded tools and independent verification. A successful experiment or generated explanation must remain distinguishable from an unverified hypothesis.
