According to researchers, language learning AI models can understand the fundamentals of biology. An AI program known as ProGen uses AI prediction to form proteins from amino acid sequences. The technology could create proteins that were actually active, understanding how the enzymes should be shaped and sequenced. There is a practically infinite number of possible enzyme combinations that can be sequenced from amino acids, and ProGen can identify and create viable ones.
Scientists say this new technology could become extremely powerful, speeding the development of proteins that can be used to create medications and other products.
