AI is inventing materials that don't exist yet | with the Faraday Institution

Batteries power almost everything in modern life but for 200 years, building a better one has meant slow, expensive trial and error. That's changing. In this Royal Institution event, in collaboration with the Faraday Institution, three leading scientists reveal how artificial intelligence is transforming battery science at every scale. Exploring the atoms that make up a material, the microscopic structure of an electrode and the algorithms predicting how long your battery will actually last.
