coherence · x · 2026-08-20
The post argues that AI is crucial for breaking through biological complexity, countering the notion that cures are elusive. Current human research is too slow to save lives. AI can accelerate research by thousands of times, reducing months of work to days. It enables digital twins for clinical trial simulation, identifies optimal patient profiles, and compresses multi-year processes into weeks or real-time.
