Thanks, Eric.
It's great to be here.
We did.
We had a meeting at CZI to bring community members together from many different parts of the community, from computer science to bioinformatics, AI experts, biologists who don't trust any of this.
We wanted to have some real contrarians in the mix as well.
And have them have a conversation together about, is there an opportunity here?
What's the shape of it?
What's realistic to expect?
And that was sort of the genesis of the article.
Yeah, Charlotte, you want me to take the first shot at that?
Okay.
So, Eric, it is a bold claim, and we have a really bold ambition here.
We view that over the course of a decade, AI is going to provide the ability to
make a transformative computational tool for biology.
Right now, cell biology is 90% experimental and 10% computational, roughly speaking.
And you've got to do just all kinds of tedious, expensive, challenging lab work to get to the answer.
And I don't think AI is going to replace that, but it can invert the ratio.
So within 10 years, I think we can get to biology being 90% computational and 10% experimental.
And the goal of the virtual cell is to build a tool that'll do that.
Yes.
