Why Industrial Reality Must Help Shape the Future of AI-Designed Metal-organic Frameworks (MOFs)
Promethean Particles' chief executive officer, James Stephenson, has written a new Insight article exploring how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping the future of materials discovery and why industrial collaboration is essential to turning rapid digital breakthroughs into real-world solutions. In the piece, James highlights the enormous potential of AI to accelerate the discovery of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a class of advanced materials with promising applications in areas such as carbon capture, water harvesting, and biogas upgrading. AI can now model and predict thousands of new structures at unprecedented speed, offering what many describe as “decades of materials development in six months.” However, he emphasises that the next major breakthrough will not come from...
