SCS researchers used MHS to run experiments about 3x faster than before, with an AI agent orchestrating a liquid handler, a plate reader, a robotic arm and monitoring cameras across three computers with fundamentally incompatible interfaces.
Today, we're kicking off the first phase of the research preview for Model Hardware Standard (MHS): a new standard for AI agents to safely operate physical equipment in scientific research and advanced manufacturing. Read more: anthropic.com/news/model-har…
