AI improved one of the most sensitive physics experiments ever built.
Researchers working on LIGO, the gravitational wave detector, asked AI for ways to improve its design.
The suggestions looked wrong. Messy. Asymmetrical. “Alien,” in their words.
But when tested, they increased sensitivity by 10 to 15 percent.
The AI was using physics principles humans had not tried in real experiments. It approached the problem differently.
