I sat down with Joseph Krause, Co-Founder and CEO of Radical AI, for a deep dive into how artificial intelligence is reshaping the future of scientific discovery. Radical AI is building autonomous, AI-driven research systems, what Joseph calls “self-driving labs,” that accelerate the discovery of new materials and breakthroughs across industries. Backed by over $55 million in funding by Nvidia and more, his team is merging deep tech, data, and science to fundamentally change how innovation happens.

In this episode, we explored how Radical AI approaches experimentation and learning, what it takes to build infrastructure at the intersection of AI and materials science, and how Joseph thinks about long-term impact and risk in a field evolving faster than ever. We also talked about the broader implications of AI for research, creativity, and progress itself.

If you’re interested in where deep tech meets real-world innovation, and how AI can accelerate the pace of discovery, this one’s for you.
