Automated Optimization - Robotic Optimization
The machine learning then directed these reactions using a robot and then that information was fed back into them to the algorithm. So those kind of two separate things that it did at the same time which is hasn't necessarily been done before but actually worked out relatively well. The reproducibility we got by doing the automated approach was was pretty tight so it's almost plus or minus two percent yield, which is a little better than one humans do it just because we have a little more variability I would say.
