Agent-based research

A research paradigm utilizing autonomous agentic-ai to execute multi-step workflows—including information retrieval, synthesis, and verification—to produce structured knowledge outputs.

Core Implementations

• Stanford’s STORM AI: An AI-powered system designed for verifiable research and automated knowledge curation.
  • Mechanism: Utilizes STORM (Synthesis of Topic Outlines through Retrieval and Multi-perspective Question Asking) to structure research.
  • Capabilities: Enables “deep research” to be performed in minutes through automated retrieval and multi-perspective inquiry.
