Minerva approach seen as compute-light path to expert-level bioinformatics for small labs

- In a discussion on AI for molecular biology, the author argues Minerva is exciting for a different reason: Mythos autonomously noticing and following up on intriguing biological features closely mirrors expert curation processes.
- This could be empowering for molecular biology labs that cannot afford in-house full-time bioinformaticians, while the Minerva approach gets to similar answers in a far more scalable and compute-light way.
