Interesting point about big companies and (relatively) small projects. This makes me wonder what will become of all the drug-repurposing hypotheses the various coscientist systems have been cranking out.
Here’s the thing about the Anthropic story. When I worked on biofuels at the EBI funded by BP, it was clear that BP did not have the capacity to think about any product less than 1 MMT (million metric ton for those who use eppendorf tubes). Where does Anthropic see this going?
I see that @anthropic.com is now competing with PhD students in Biology/Bioengineering labs, whose biggest worry until now was being inevitably scooped by the Feng Zhang and Jennifer Doudna labs. Very different from Wild West days of RT discoveries in my PhD. www.anthropic.com/news/claude-...

I’m not sure what we learn from these CoScientist papers if they do not disclose how much human oversight and guidance there was, as you note. Also, where’s the control? How long would it take researchers to come up with the same answer not involving AI?
