🔥 What happened Anthropic launched a new life sciences lab. Claude ran 950 agents for 21 hours using 210 million tokens to scan a DNA database, discovering a novel enzyme system called ART – reverse transcriptases with CRISPR-like repeat arrays. 💡 Why it matters CRISPR transformed gene medicine. ART could be the next programmable DNA toolkit. 950 agents found in 21 hours what human researchers might take years to uncover – a new benchmark for AI-driven biology. ⚡ Our take Anthropic is building labs, not just models. This isn't a PR stunt – Feng Zhang from MIT confirms its significance. The question isn't if, but when AI becomes standard equipment for every biologist.
