Summary

The design side is going to get more capable. So I think inherently there is this arms race style dynamic that the defensive side has been far, far lagging.

Why listen

It goes beyond the title with direct discussion of like, think, know, including: The defensive side needs to try to get ahead.

Key takeaways
  1. 01We felt it was important as a lab that a team that was both building the design capabilities is actually also best suited for building the defense capabilities because they're basi
  2. 02A model that is good at generating turns out is also very good at discriminating or predicting if a sequence is pathogenic or not
  3. 03So if we're going to create models that can design function into sequences, we believe and see a gap in companies being able to safeguard that technology
