AI System Predicts Medicine's Hidden Powers, NewScientist.com
 









Excerpts: Treatments for new or drug-resistant infectious diseases may already
be in our medicine cabinets, say the molecular biologists responsible for
developing an artificial-intelligence system that can predict unknown antibiotic
properties of existing drugs.(...) "In the case of new infectious diseases,
there might be no time to develop a completely new drug from the ground up,"
(...) However, if the new AI system suggests an existing drug might be an
effective antibiotic, it could be quickly tested for efficacy, and then pushed
into service, Cherkasov says.
