Well, AI for drugs is not a bad idea. Only because they can go through possible strings very fast, and then come up with some solutions to try.
AI is not in charge of testing, because how could it.
But drugs developed by AI, SHOULD be royalty free. But we all know it wont.
Techbros giving drugs away royalty free? Yep, we would need to be high to think that.
LLMs are not the type of AI to use for examining molecular chains.
Does it say they're going to use an llm?
Then what's the point of this article? Machine learning has been a critical aspect of drug discovery for a decade+ now. Anthropic is built on a cornerstone of transformer models. Presumably, they are wanting to implement a transformer based approach to drug discovery otherwise this is absolutely nothing new and that's a TERRIBLE idea.
The point of the article is that they want to develop their own drugs. Not just hand over the model to drug companies for them to use and discover drugs.
The method is not new. But it's new that Antrophic will have a drug division.
Yeah they'll make medbeds any day now. Or maybe it's for their internal use only, because they'll noticed bubble and don't like what they're seeing. I wonder if they're foolish enough to vacuum up all data from companies that used their chatbots to come up with something hoping that no one will notice
Every single bit of that is so fucking stupid, they're replaying crypto playbook 1:1. Spot an industry that they think they'll manage in, then try to leech off of it in purest display of rentseeking imaginable, coupled with techbros folk belief that since programming is soo haard, then as they can do that they can do everything else too, all with no plan, no labs, no specialists onboard or faintiest idea what they're doing
I think they already did plenty of drugs, no more drugs needed
This is funny. Was it too hard to automate everything with AI, that you now need to explore other avenues?
They‘re following the Musk model of falling up the ladder by declaring ever bigger and more ridiculous goals after the last venture failed. It has proven to be quite effective with investors for some reason.
Based on the crazy shit that Dario says in public, they probably already are making them and he got first dibs.
Right
Tekwar is coming..
The idea of an AI company making drugs scares me.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
