On Cancer

While I agree we’re bottlenecked by tools and data, some kinds of cancer are already being transformed by algorithmic insight—e.g., protein folding, genetic mapping, immunotherapy targeting.

The Being might not cure all cancer, but it could plausibly reclassify and stratify existing cancers better than any human team, identify novel biochemical targets, and optimize treatment protocols in silico.

So "no" feels too strong. I’d go with:

“Not instantly, but dramatic acceleration and reframing are likely.”
