AI for scientific discovery: How researchers use Claude
Hacker News | Nov 6, 2026 | ersinesen
Automated excerpt
Using privacy-preserving methods, we study 207,000 Claude and Claude Code research sessions to understand how Claude is used across scientific fields and research tasks. In this report, we use privacy-preserving infrastructure to study the scientific use of Claude, Claude Code, and Claude Science. The AI share is calculated without any Claude use data, so this relationship is further evidence that AI use tracks theoretical AI capability.
