Future Trends: Towards Autonomous Research Agent Systems

Artificial intelligence and large language models (LLMs) are reshaping scientific research by enabling autonomous research assistants that can perform complex tasks such as literature review, hypothesis generation, and experimental design. A key emerging approach is the use of multi-agent systems, where specialised AI agents collaborate to achieve research goals. Multi-agent
