Autonomous research is evolving. New AI systems now prevent “metric chasing” by enforcing structural integrity in quadruped navigation experiments.

- **Immutable Cards:** Hypotheses cannot be rewritten.
- **Sub-agents:** Roles are strictly siloed.
- **Preference Oracles:** Subjective “taste” is isolated to ensure honest results.

By locking the research loop, AI now prioritizes genuine falsifiable findings over convenient data manipulation. The future of science is automated and accountable.
