AI design of enzyme, obviously the evolutionary optimization, novel measurement techniques to let us sort through all of these new genetic sequences.
I think in the next five to 10 years, we will be able to genetically encode almost all chemical transformations that you could perform in an enzymatic system.
No, no, that's fine.
Everything that's ever been said to me is now out in chat GPT.
Why not add a few more?
Oh, young Frances was a real pain in the you-know-what.
I was bored in school and so was off doing my own thing most of the time.
I was very curious about the world and so didn't pay attention to the very boring classes that we had starting in elementary school.
So they, you know what they did with a little girl in the 1960s who was bored in school?
They sent me to typing classes.
So at age 10, I learned how to type sitting on phone books, learned how to type.
And then I took mechanical drawing, geometry, and a number of other classes in the high school.
And so that by the time I went to middle school, I was completely bored and I started cutting classes.
I didn't go to school anymore.
This started in eighth grade.
I got kicked out of the private school that my mother had worked so hard to get me into because they would cater to
bright girls.
But I got kicked out because I would go off and do other things instead of going to school.
And I just said, OK, well, high school is not very interesting and started leaving school again.
Well, they didn't like it.
