DeepMind’s AlphaGenome AI Begins Decoding DNA’s Hidden Instructions For Life
For decades, scientists have known how to read DNA, but not how to fully understand it. The human genome, composed of more than three billion chemical letters, contains everything needed to build, operate, and maintain a human being. Yet despite the genome being mapped more than twenty years ago, much of its meaning has remained elusive. Now, a powerful artificial intelligence model developed by Google DeepMind—called AlphaGenome—is beginning to change that reality. Researchers say the system represents a fundamental shift in how biology, medicine, and genetics will be studied in the coming decades. Rather than simply identifying genes, AlphaGenome attempts … Read more
