Artificial Intelligence‐Driven Development in Rechargeable Battery Materials: Progress, Challenges, and Future Perspectives

Abstract The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into materials science has catalyzed a transformative revolution in energy storage technology, particularly in the development of advanced rechargeable battery systems. This paradigm shift is redefining traditional approaches to battery materials innovation by the emergence of AI‐driven methodology. The review commences with an overview of typical algorithms and workflows integrated in the design and optimization of rechargeable battery materials in recent years. Subsequently, the cutting‐edge applications of AI in the development of anode, cathode, liquid electrolyte, and solid‐state electrolyte materials are reviewed. The key performance metrics and application characteristics are summarized, and the most recent and innovative milestones are highlighted, emphasizing the ability of the AI‐driven method to solve complex multi‐parameter coupling relationships. Meanwhile, this paper briefly discusses the critical challenges impeding the full realization of AI's potential in battery innovation, including data scarcity, data quality, and model interpretability. Finally, the review outlines future directions for AI‐powered closed‐loop autonomous materials discovery systems, proposing a visionary framework that integrates high‐throughput experimental and computational platforms, standardized databases, physics‐informed algorithms, and explainable AI protocols. This synthesis of cross‐disciplinary expertise positions AI not just as an optimization tool but as a paradigm‐shifting force in the energy storage field.
