As part of the new direction that I’ve been taking this newsletter in, I’ve been exploring a bunch of different scientific applications of AI in pharma and biotech.
Clear and useful thinking, thank you. I continue to wonder about the useful limits of mechanistic thinking for biology. Less about AI, but just in general. Can we model complex systems by adding together all the parts? I think the answer is usually, “no” and our unwillingness to think about and study the properties of complete systems really holds us back.
