An interactive overview of Aubrai's performance from October 2025.

Executive Summary

This report synthesizes feedback from Aubrai’s recent integration into VitaLabs. While the agent demonstrated significant promise as a thought partner—expanding experimental plans and generating novel, cross-disciplinary hypotheses—these successes also highlighted a critical gap between its impressive knowledge base and its scientific reasoning. Key challenges include a lack of consistent, context-aware judgment, a persistent positivity bias, and a tendency to favor novelty over practicality. The recommendations within this report are designed to bridge this gap, focusing on instilling a more reliable scientific mind in the agent and enhancing its practical utility through features like a personalized "Researcher Mode."
