CodeScientist: An AI-Powered Tool for Automated Scientific Discovery – Costs and Risks

CodeScientist is an autonomous agent leveraging LLMs for automated scientific discovery. It generates, debugs, and runs experiments, but costs vary depending on debugging iterations, prompt size, etc., averaging around $4 per experiment. Users must carefully manage API keys and monitor usage to avoid high costs. The generated code might contain API keys; exclusion patterns are recommended to prevent accidental commits.
