AI Usage Disclosure

New Science uses generative AI as a core part of its discovery system. When a player attempts a combination, an AI model may be used to determine whether the two selected objects can logically produce a new result. Generative AI is also used to create an illustration for newly discovered objects. Known discoveries are stored and reused, so the same established combination does not need to be generated again for every player. This system allows New Science to support open-ended experimentation beyond a small, completely predefined recipe list. Players may therefore encounter newly generated combinations and images that have not previously been seen by the development team.

Disclosure History

Captured versions of the developer’s statement. This record can miss changes between checks and does not establish when AI use began.

New Science uses generative AI as a core part of the game experience. When you combine two cards to discover a new one, an AI model determines what that combination produces. Each discovered card is illustrated with a unique AI-generated image. This AI-powered system is what makes the game's open-ended discovery possible. Combinations are not limited to a fixed recipe list, so the game can surprise you in ways a traditionally authored game could not. We are proud of how we use AI here and consider it central to what makes New Science special.
