biosecurity

Today in AI for life science: generative AI can finally design proficient enzymes, autonomous biofoundries close the design-build-test loop, and a census of 1,196 biology-AI models finds safeguards remain the rare exception.

Today in AI for life science: a new protocol lets AI agents safely drive lab instruments, autonomous labs run experiments at a scale that outpaces the rules, and foundation models reach a new frontier — the microbiome.

Today in AI for life science: a general-purpose ‘AI biologist’ matches human researchers across 25 subfields, cell models generalize across species, and the newest frontier model ships bio-tuned — and on a government leash.
