DeepMind Co-Scientist: A multi-agent AI partner to accelerate research
DeepMind's Co-Scientist paper in Nature drops the actual bombshell in one sentence — the majority of system compute goes to verifying hypotheses, not generating them. The moat isn't Gemini; it's the verifier corpus that grounds each claim: AlphaFold, ChEMBL, UniProt, the literature stack Google has quietly accumulated. Every "AI for vertical X" startup pricing the model layer is pricing the wrong layer of the stack.
