Latent Space: The AI Engineer Podcast · 🔬 Automating Science: World Models, Scientific Taste, Agent Loops — Andrew White · 28 Jan 2026 podcast

Yep.

And that was like not a thing uh that was very popular, but you had Max Welling on before in C Max Welling, which you know the the godfather of of geometric deep learning.

Yeah.

So uh I wrote this textbook about like this these methods and there was a bunch of interesting mathematics to it.

I had a good time and stuff.

And then um uh I think I was following, you know, the news in the space and Codex, the original Codex came out.

And um I have been looking at Transformers for a while.

I just tinkered with them.

And we started trying them on doing some chemistry tasks.

We were really impressed actually.

And we wrote a benchmark and this is like twenty nineteen or something.

We wrote a benchmark of verifiable rewards in twenty nineteen.

Maybe it was twenty twenty by then, but like

Like here's uh here's a function, and um uh sorry, there's like a a task which is like I have a body of a function for like a Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation, it's missing some pieces, complete it.

And then we had like a verifier that would see did it is it a valid MCMC simulation?

Yeah, this Markov chain Monte Carlo is right.

We wrote this paper, it ended up coming out, I think, in 2021, 2022.

Um, because it took a long time to bank enough questions.

But I wrote an opinion piece about how transformers could change um how we think about chemistry and things like this and how we teach it.

And then opening eye
