Schmidt emphasizes that AI has emerged as a "polymath on steroids," fostering innovation and breakthroughs in various scientific fields. He presents compelling evidence illustrating how AI systems, such as AlphaFold, have revolutionized drug discovery and material science. The idea is simple yet profound: AI can analyze vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and run simulations far quicker than a human being. This collaboration between AI and human intellect will soon lead to significant advancements in healthcare and climate science, tackling issues that seem insurmountable today.
