Professor DeryaTR from The Jackson Laboratory reiterates a bold prediction made a year ago: AI will make 99% of diseases treatable within a decade, including cancer, and reverse aging in roughly 15 years. The key mechanism is AI's ability to simulate biology and build digital twins, reducing clinical trials that take years to just days or weeks.
