Stanford's Kundaje: model-in-the-loop biology needs different experimental controls
anshulkundaje · x · 2026-10-03
Stanford professor Anshul Kundaje notes that classically trained biologists know controls well — but for traditional experiments only. When a model is in the loop or data is generated specifically for a learning task, the specs and considerations differ substantially. The lesson: AI, biostatistics, and wet-lab people must talk to each other.
