Google DeepMind introduced AlphaGenome Atlas, an AI system predicting the molecular effects of all 9 billion possible single-letter DNA mutations across the human genome — including the mysterious 98% that doesn't code for proteins. The entire human genome is now searchable, a major bio×AI acceleration with implications for genetic disease research.
