Fed by vast troves of scientific data, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/publications\/top-10-emerging-technologies-2024\/digest\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">A.I.<\/a> promises to generate new drugs to combat disease, new agriculture to feed the world\u2019s population and new materials to unlock green energy \u2014 all in a tiny fraction of the time of traditional research.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Technology companies like <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/research\/lab\/microsoft-research-ai-for-science\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Microsoft<\/a> and <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/research.google\/blog\/accelerating-scientific-breakthroughs-with-an-ai-co-scientist\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google<\/a> are making A.I. tools for science and collaborating with partners in fields like drug discovery. And the Nobel Prize in Chemistry last year <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/10\/09\/science\/nobel-prize-chemistry.html\" title=\"\">went to scientists using A.I.<\/a> to predict and create proteins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">This month, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lila.ai\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Lila Sciences<\/a> went public with its own ambitions to revolutionize science through A.I. The start-up, which is based in Cambridge, Mass., had worked in secret for two years \u201cto build scientific superintelligence to solve humankind\u2019s greatest challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Relying on an experienced team of scientists and $200 million in initial funding, Lila has been developing an A.I. program trained on published and experimental data, as well as the scientific process and reasoning. The start-up then lets that A.I. software run experiments in automated, physical labs with a few scientists to assist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Already, in projects demonstrating the technology, Lila\u2019s A.I. has generated novel antibodies to fight disease and developed new materials for capturing carbon from the atmosphere. Lila turned those experiments into physical results in its lab within months, a process that most likely would take years with conventional research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Experiments like Lila\u2019s have convinced many scientists that A.I. will soon make the hypothesis-experiment-test cycle faster than ever before. In some cases, A.I. could even exceed the human imagination with inventions, turbocharging progress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cA.I. will power the next revolution of this most valuable thing humans ever stumbled across \u2014 the scientific method,\u201d said Geoffrey von Maltzahn, Lila\u2019s chief executive, who has a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering and medical physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The push to reinvent the scientific discovery process builds on the power of generative A.I., which burst into public awareness with the introduction of OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT just over two years ago. The new technology is trained on data across the internet and can answer questions, write reports and compose email with humanlike fluency.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The new breed of A.I. set off a commercial arms race and seemingly limitless spending by tech companies including OpenAI, Microsoft and Google.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">(The New York Times has <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/12\/27\/business\/media\/new-york-times-open-ai-microsoft-lawsuit.html\" title=\"\">sued<\/a> OpenAI and Microsoft, which formed a partnership, accusing them of copyright infringement regarding news content related to A.I. systems. OpenAI and Microsoft have denied those claims.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lila has taken a science-focused approach to training its generative A.I., feeding it research papers, documented experiments and data from its fast-growing life science and materials science lab. That, the Lila team believes, will give the technology both depth in science and wide-ranging abilities, mirroring the way chatbots can write poetry and computer code.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Still, Lila and any company working to crack \u201cscientific superintelligence\u201d will face major challenges, scientists say. While A.I. is already revolutionizing certain fields, including drug discovery, it\u2019s unclear whether the technology is just a powerful tool or on a path to matching or surpassing all human abilities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Since Lila has been operating in secret, outside scientists have not been able to evaluate its work and, they add, early progress in science does not guarantee success, as unforeseen obstacles often surface later.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cMore power to them, if they can do it,\u201d said David Baker, a biochemist and director of the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ipd.uw.edu\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Institute for Protein Design at the University of Washington<\/a>. \u201cIt seems beyond anything I\u2019m familiar with in scientific discovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Baker, who shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry last year, said he viewed A.I. more as a tool.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lila was conceived inside <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flagshippioneering.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Flagship Pioneering<\/a>, an investor in and prolific creator of biotechnology companies, including the Covid-19 vaccine maker Moderna. Flagship conducts scientific research, focusing on where breakthroughs are likely within a few years and could prove commercially valuable, said Noubar Afeyan, Flagship\u2019s founder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cSo not only do we care about the idea, we care about the timeliness of the idea,\u201d Dr. Afeyan said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lila resulted from the merger of two early A.I. company projects at Flagship, one focused on new materials and the other on biology. The two groups were trying to solve similar problems and recruit the same people, so they combined forces, said Molly Gibson, a computational biologist and a Lila co-founder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Lila team has completed five projects to demonstrate the abilities of its A.I., a powerful version of one of a growing number of sophisticated assistants known as agents. In each case, scientists \u2014 who typically had no specialty in the subject matter \u2014 typed in a request for what they wanted the A.I. program to accomplish. After refining the request, the scientists, working with A.I. as a partner, ran experiments and tested the results \u2014 again and again, steadily homing in on the desired target.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">One of those projects found a new catalyst for green hydrogen production, which involves using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. The A.I. was instructed that the catalyst had to be abundant or easy to produce, unlike iridium, the current commercial standard. With A.I.\u2019s help, the two scientists found a novel catalyst in four months \u2014 a process that more typically might take years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">That success helped persuade John Gregoire, a prominent researcher in new materials for clean energy, to leave the California Institute of Technology last year to join Lila as head of physical sciences research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">George Church, a Harvard geneticist known for his pioneering research in genome sequencing and DNA synthesis who has co-founded dozens of companies, also joined recently as Lila\u2019s chief scientist.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-8\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI think science is a really good topic for A.I.,\u201d Dr. Church said. Science is focused on specific fields of knowledge, where truth and accuracy can be tested and measured, he added. That makes A.I. in science less prone to the errant and erroneous answers, known as hallucinations, sometimes created by chatbots.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-9\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The early projects are still a long way from market-ready products. Lila will now work with partners to commercialize the ideas emerging from its lab.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lila is expanding its lab space in a six-floor Flagship building in Cambridge, alongside the Charles River. Over the next two years, Lila says, it plans to move into a separate building, add tens of thousands of square feet of lab space and open offices in San Francisco and London.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On a recent day, trays carrying 96 wells of DNA samples rode on magnetic tracks, shifting directions quickly for delivery to different lab stations, depending partly on what the A.I. suggested. The technology appeared to improvise as it executed experimental steps in pursuit of novel proteins, gene editors or metabolic pathways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In another part of the lab, scientists monitored high-tech machines used to create, measure and analyze custom nanoparticles of new materials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-10\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The activity on the lab floor was guided by a collaboration of white-coated scientists, automated equipment and unseen software. Every measurement, every experiment, every incremental success and failure was captured digitally and fed into Lila\u2019s A.I. So it continuously learns, gets smarter and does more on its own.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cOur goal is really to give A.I. access to run the scientific method \u2014 to come up with new ideas and actually go into the lab and test those ideas,\u201d Dr. Gibson said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/10\/technology\/ai-science-lab-lila.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Across the spectrum of uses for artificial intelligence, one stands out.
