AI agent spending is claimed to speed work on a scientific problem tenfold

A user says spending on AI agents has accelerated their work on a scientific problem tenfold and invites people with unreleased frontier models to get in touch. They say they spend more on tokens than on rent. In a reply, another user says their group uses frontier models for open-source work on problems relevant to cancer research and wonders whether the same approach could help them access the best models.
