Sage-Taiyi: A Metacognitive Architecture for Scientific Discovery

Sage-Taiyi is a metacognition-inspired architecture that uses accumulated scientific understanding to choose what to investigate and how. On Taiyi-Bench, an AI co-scientist ideation benchmark of 265 tasks from 50 papers, it scores 54.0 Overall against 47.9 for the strongest baseline, AI Scientist-v2. In chemistry, its reaction-condition optimisation raised cobalt-catalysed carbonylation yield from trace amounts to 84% and photocatalytic allylic amination from 13% to 69%.
