950 Claude agents run 21 hours, uncover DNA pattern resembling CRISPR
victor_explore · x · 2026-09-30
Peter Diamandis reports that 950 Claude agents searched for 21 hours and found a DNA pattern highly similar to CRISPR, plus a new enzyme whose function is still unknown — asking whether Nobel-level discoveries might now arrive weekly.
Developer @victorexplore notes the real bottleneck: handing off the search is easy, but wet labs can't keep up with validating what 950 agents dig up in a single day.
