Arm CEO Rene Haas: AI will help cure cancer 'within our lifetimes' and usher in humanoid robots in 5 years

Arm Holdings CEO Rene Haas told the BBC that AI will help find a cancer cure "within our lifetimes": modeling how a DNA marker is affected by cancer is too complex for today's humans and computers, but as models improve and the computers running them get more sophisticated, "they're going to solve it." He also predicted AI will pave the way for widespread humanoid robots within five years. Scientists already use AI in cancer research — the NHS said earlier this year that over 4 million patients got faster lung diagnosis thanks to AI-powered X-ray tools.
