Scientists create first AI-designed viruses
Scientists have used AI to design the first viruses, specifically bacteriophages that target bacteria, in laboratory tests. The AI-generated viruses effectively killed resistant E. coli bacteria, highlighting potential advances in medicine, but raising concerns about biosafety and biosecurity. Experts warn that while AI can aid in therapies, there is a need for strict governance to prevent misuse of genome design technologies.
