Study tests whether AI agents can reliably optimize computational chemistry codes

A paper posted on arXiv describes a general strategy for controlled optimization of scientific software using a dual-agent harness. The approach uses separate worker and command agents to improve computational chemistry code. The snippet notes that AI agents can already execute computational workflows autonomously, and that their use in scientific software development is a promising direction. The source snippet is truncated, so the full results and performance details are not available here.
