Claim
For 500 years scientific output scaled with the number of brilliant scientists who could be trained, and that constraint has now been replaced by spinning up thousands of AI researchers on demand.

Assessment
Supported
Main unresolved issue: 7 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:863f6de1-e9c1-83fe-bd6d-22d2b973aa7c
Not yet independently audited.This assessment depends heavily on modeling choices.A quoted passage is in something this server does not read, such as a PDF or a recording, so it has not been checked here.
Why?
Strongest counted support: Aster reports coordinating about 1000 concurrent LLM calls for autonomous research, raising ProteinGym performance from 0.507 to 0.524 in 30 minutes. weight 0.918000 evidence
Suppressed as dependent: The excerpt contrasts 500 years of scaling science by trained scientists with spinning up 10,000 researchers on a Tuesday afternoon.; A speaker says science scaled for 500 years with trainable scientists, and that 10,000 researchers can now be spun up in an afternoon.
Review gaps: independence reviewed, primary source reviewed
What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

Both halves of the claim appear in the passage. The word 'AI' is not used, only 'spin up'; and the demonstration is asserted emphatically, as 'absolutely for real and unequivocally', without the passage pointing to what was demonstrated or where.
