Anthropic says Claude Opus 4.7 matches dedicated chemistry software like MestReNova on predicting molecular structures from NMR spectra
It also reconstructs molecular structures directly from NMR spectra

People still think LLMs are just chatbots. Meanwhile, Claude is analyzing molecular structures and competing with software built exclusively for chemistry. The interesting part isn't that AI learned chemistry. It's that a general purpose model is starting to match, and sometimes outperform, specialized scientific tools in niche domains. We're reaching a point where AI isn't just helping scientists, it's becoming a serious scientific tool itself.
