❗️The biotech rabbit hole is getting strange The wild part of AI in biology right now isn’t that models can predict proteins.It’s that the entire research loop is starting to close. This week alone: • Stanford ran a virtual biotech with 37,000 AI agents that generated and tested hypotheses at a scale humans couldn’t realistically match. One proposed cancer therapy was later independently confirmed by a pharmaceutical company seven months afterward. • Novo Nordisk revealed it now has 600+ AI and digital employees and more than 30 AI partnerships embedded in its actual R&D operation. • Nvidia-backed Iambic filed for a US IPO with an AI-designed oncology drug already in clinical development, alongside a new partnership with AbbVie. • A model trained on 20,000+ private pharmaceutical protein structures reportedly outperformed public models, raising a potentially bigger question: is proprietary biological data becoming the real moat? • Stanford trained a cell model on 112 million cells across 12 species, pushing toward something closer to a general-purpose model of biology. • Anthropic is even operating a molecular-biology lab where humans and AI agents generate hypotheses and run physical experiments. And that points to a strange new bottleneck. AI may soon be able to generate biological hypotheses faster than scientists can physically test them. At that point, the limiting factor isn’t just intelligence. It’s data, lab capacity and the speed at which reality can catch up with the machines. @aipost 🏴
