Part 5/8:
The implications of these advancements are profound. For the first time, scientists can harness the full breadth of the scientific method across various fields and datasets. Generative AI has the potential to create a new generation of scientists—a multidisciplinary cohort able to tackle the complexities of modern science holistically.
In practice, this means that biologists could radically accelerate their research processes, drastically cutting down the time taken from months to mere days for experiments and analyses. It promises not just speed but a new approach to drug discovery, as seen in recent collaborations where generative AI expedited the development timelines of new drug candidates.
