模型在垂直领域(生物)展现出自主发现能力,是 AI for Science 的重要里程碑,值得从业者关注大模型科研潜力的落地进展。
Dario Amodei still believes AI could “cure most diseases in 5-10 years,” and Anthropic’s latest discovery offers an early glimpse of the research he thinks could get us there.
达里奥·阿莫迪(Dario Amodei)仍然相信人工智能可以在“5到10年内治愈大多数疾病”,而Anthropic的最新发现为我们提供了他认为是通往这一目标的研究的早期一瞥。
He calls that goal "barely possible", and only if AI is applied to every stage of the pipeline.
他将这一目标称为“勉强可行”,但前提是人工智能必须应用于流程的每一个阶段。
Anthropic says Claude identified a previously overlooked biological system in viruses that infect bacteria. It noticed an unusual arrangement of repeating DNA beside a known enzyme, investigated the pattern, and proposed experiments for human scientists to carry out.
Anthropic表示,Claude在感染细菌的病毒中发现了一个此前被忽视的生物系统。它注意到已知酶旁边存在一种不寻常的重复DNA排列方式,研究了该模式,并提出了供人类科学家进行的实验建议。
"After 21 hours spent searching this data by roughly 950 agents using 210 million tokens, one of the agents spotted something remarkable: a repeating pattern of DNA sequences that occurs next to the gene for an odd-looking RT."
“在花费21小时、由大约950个智能体使用2.1亿个token搜索这些数据后,其中一个智能体发现了非凡之处:一组与外观奇特的逆转录酶(RT)基因相邻的DNA序列重复模式。”
Initial lab work showed that those repeats produce short RNA molecules. The arrangement resembles CRISPR, but its function and potential usefulness for gene editing remain unknown.
初步的实验工作表明,这些重复序列会产生短RNA分子。这种排列方式类似于CRISPR,但其功能和在基因编辑中的潜在用途仍未知。
The prospect of doing this repeatedly is exciting: AI searching enormous datasets, finding things scientists have missed, and helping decide what to test next.
反复进行此类操作的愿景令人兴奋:人工智能搜索海量数据集,发现科学家遗漏的内容,并帮助决定下一步测试什么。
As Dario puts it: "The first step is showing that AI can first help with, and then drive, biological discoveries." I think the next big revolution will actually take place in biology. OpenAI and Anthropic were farsighted enough to focus on this early on.
正如达里奥所言:“第一步是证明人工智能能够首先辅助生物发现,随后推动生物发现。”我认为下一次重大革命实际上将发生在生物学领域。OpenAI和Anthropic具有远见,早在早期就专注于此。
No one has the slightest idea what's still to come.
没有人对接下来还会发生什么有一丁点概念。
