Microsoft's AI found a new material to replace li-ion batteries | Will machine learning algorithms revolutionize scientific research on battery materials?


Microsoft collaborated with the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to discover a novel material that could alleviate the global dependence on lithium in the...

Microsoft and PNNL trained the AI models using millions of data points from simulations, resulting in a 1,500 times faster prediction of materials properties compared to traditional density functional theory calculations. With the synergy of AI, the Azure Quantum Elements platform, and established scientific expertise, Microsoft claims that modern technology can condense the next 250 years of chemistry and materials science innovation "into the next 25."
