GPT-Lab: Next Generation Of Optimal Chemistry Discovery By GPT Driven Robotic Lab

摘要

The integration of robots in chemical experiments has enhanced experimental efficiency, but lacking the human intelligence to comprehend literature, they seldom provide assistance in experimental design. Therefore, achieving full-process autonomy from experiment design to validation in self-driven laboratories (SDL) remains a challenge. The introduction of Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPT), particularly GPT-4, into robotic experimentation offers a solution. We introduce GPT-Lab, a paradigm that employs GPT models to give robots human-like intelligence. With our robotic experimentation platform, GPT-Lab mines literature for materials and methods and validates findings through high-throughput synthesis. As a demonstration, GPT-Lab analyzed 500 articles, identified 18 potential reagents, and successfully produced an accurate humidity colorimetric sensor with a root mean square error (RMSE) of 2.68%. This showcases the rapid materials discovery and validation potential of our system.
