4、up AI development persist all the way to 2030?This report examines what this scale-up would involve in terms of compute,investment,data,hardware,and energy.We explore the role of compute across inference and training,the promise of economic value that would be necessary to justify such investment,an

5、d potential challenges in data availability and energy.Based on these predictions for how AI will be developed,we turn to predict future AI capabilities,and the impacts they will have in scientific R&D.AI for science is the explicit goal of several leading AI developers,and is likely to be among the

6、 top priorities for AI deployment.Scientific R&D provides a valuable lens for understanding what advanced AI will achieve.Compute scaling has played a key role in AI development,and will likely continue to do so.Compute for training and inference drives improvements in AI capabilities,and much progr
