You Are Not an Impostor: Agentic Coding and the New Computational Scientist

A pipeline I never wrote a line of worked flawlessly on the first try, and it left me with impostor syndrome. Here is why relying on AI agents is not cheating, but a permanent shift in what scientific expertise actually means.

Does data leakage really inflate binding-affinity GNNs? A laptop-scale reproduction

I tried to reproduce the well-known PDBbind data-leakage effect with a small 3D GNN on a laptop - and couldn't. Two independent diagnostics show why: leakage only inflates models strong enough to memorize.
