Description

We present a first head-to-head comparison of different agentic AI systems applied to the study of gravitational waves. Agentic systems, supervised either via a human-in-the-loop or in fully autonomous mode, are tasked with performing matched-filter analyses in the context of the Einstein Telescope mock data challenge and with fully writing a scientific paper in the style of PRD. While all systems successfully complete the pipeline, we observe very different patterns depending on the chosen backend LLM, with different computational costs and varying quality and correctness of the produced manuscripts.
