Anthropic的Claude发现类似Crispr的酶系统
anthropic的claude ai模型发现了一个具有crispr类似特性的酶系统,科学家们对其意义和作为基因编辑工具的潜力存在争议。
anthropic's large language model claude discovered an enzyme system with properties reminiscent of crispr, a nobel prize-winning gene-editing tool. about 950 claude agents running simultaneously found the genetic sequences in 21.5 hours. the system, called art, is found in jumbo phages, large viruses that infect bacteria. scientists are debating its significance, with some questioning whether it's a new crispr system or a retron, a bacterial immune system with some utility in gene editing.
