Harnessing agent memory to build lifelong AI partners for materials scientists
Harnessing agent memory to build lifelong AI partners for materials scientists
Abstract: Materials research advances through accumulated experience – scripts that work, protocols that are trusted, warnings attached to failed calculations or experiments, and judgement that links a new question to an old result. This experience is essential for reproducibility and knowledge transfer, yet it is usually fragmented across notebooks, repositories, job logs and individual memory, and it is rarely portable across artificial‑intelligence agents. Here we argue that a lifelong AI partner for materials science can be designed around persistent memory rather than around a particular agent implementation. We introduce a self‑evolving memory framework that stores scientific experience as inspectable facts and executable skills, so that observations, failure boundaries, protocols and validation checks can be retrieved, revised and migrated across models.
