"AI-Discovered Material Offers Potential to Reduce Lithium in Batteries"
TL;DR Summary
Microsoft and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have used AI and high-performance computing to identify a potential material that could reduce the use of lithium in batteries by up to 70%. The material is a solid-state electrolyte, which poses less risk of fire compared to lithium. While more testing is needed, the use of generative AI has accelerated the discovery process, and researchers have 17 potential materials to consider as lithium replacements.
