#AI-Biotech
To be clear, they're throwing money at AI which the techno-cultists insist will somehow save lives while gutting funding for biotech that has demonstrably already saved lives.

the key here i think is that biotech requires a lot more expertise and doesn't promise to essentially replace the entire labour force, even if the benefits are 100x more useful than modern AI tools
Idk why all these people are so dead set on burning fortunes on AI when biotechnology, particularly medical technology, has been where the really spectacular advances have been made recently. mRNA and it's implications should be getting all of the money.

Yes, dozens of them! Solar, batteries, wind, vaccines, antibiotics, phage, neurotechnology, nanomaterials, hydroponics, biotech, green steel... but we're against environmentally and socially damaging ones like AI (yes, it's both). That shouldn't be difficult to understand.

What do you get when you combine the CEO of an AI-BioTech company and the need for relaxation after a day of work?

Well... this!

We’re home to more Americans than any other state. Culture, food, music, movies, AI, biotech, quantum computing, agriculture, it all happens here first.

We don’t run from change. We drive it.

That’s the California Way.

And it lights the path for the rest of the world.

(No, seriously, "biotech is using AI to develop new drugs" is unironically amazing.)

If you want my own opinion - on-demand computing and not needing to rely on onsite HPCs (even if there are budgetary problems) has been far more transformative for biotech and biotech pipelines than AI adjacent technologies have.

We've been doing computational prediction models for decades.

if you're faced with a decision:

(1) use AI/machine intelligence/other mechanisms to accelerate biotech research by 2, 5, or 10x
(2) block the use of the above, to preserve the job of 'humans looking through microscopes'

choosing (2) seems like a completely immoral decision.

Thing is, biotech is accelerated precisely because of AI.

AI solved protein folding, for example.
the key here i think is that biotech requires a lot more expertise and doesn't promise to essentially replace the entire labour force, even if the benefits are 100x more useful than modern AI tools
Idk why all these people are so dead set on burning fortunes on AI when biotechnology, particularly medical technology, has been where the really spectacular advances have been made recently. mRNA and it's implications should be getting all of the money.

People in biotech are actually running into this problem — AI is really good at producing drug candidates and getting better faster. It’s also good at simulating early development testing. But final phase trials will always be necessary and AI can really do nothing to speed them up.
