Biggest-ever AI biology model writes DNA on demand
Scientists have released an artificial intelligence model for biology trained on 128,000 genomes spanning the tree of life. It can make sense of existing DNA and also write whole chromosomes and small genomes from scratch. The model is available to scientists through a web interface - it can also be downloaded freely. The model could be used to help identify hard-to-interpret changes in people's genomes, decipher complex genomes, predict the effects of mutations, and more.
