  • Scientists have made the first viruses designed by artificial intelligence in a milestone that raises hopes for new medicines but also concerns over how to ensure the technology remains safe.

    The viruses are specific kinds known as bacteriophages, which only infect bacteria and are used around the world to treat patients with persistent infections. In lab tests, a cocktail of the AI-designed viruses killed E* coli* bugs that were resistant to natural bacteriophages.

    Dr Brian Hie, a chemical engineer at Stanford University in California, used genome language models, the genetic equivalent of the large language models behind AI chatbots, to design functioning genomes for bacteriophages. The viruses were then made in the laboratory and pitted against E* coli* in a dish.

    The ability to “rapidly design” genomes and tune them for specific bugs while overcoming resistance could “transform phage therapy” and “expand biotechnological toolkits”, the researchers wrote in the journal Science.

    dug deeper, this is bacteriophage research, and the genome model just gave them the genomes and they made the bacteriophage

    this is cure research as it bacteriophages infect and destroy bacteria

    this could be groundbreaking as they were able to infect bacteria that normal bacteriophages couldnt

    2. In one study, 93 percent of convicted sex offenders described themselves as “religious.” Perhaps surprisingly, many sexual predators consider churches as “safe havens,” Vieth said, with trusting, forgiving adults and easy access to children.

    “Described themselves as religious” ≠ Ordained Catholic Priests

    1. Of the 1050 victims in our sample, 404 had been in Roman Catholic, 130 in Protestant, and 516 in non-religious institutions. The overall mean age at the time of reporting was 52.2 years. Males (59.8%) outnumbered females

    Protestants and Non Religious people are the majority in this study and Significantly more victims from Protestant institutions reported having current psychosocial problems.

    3. Again, nothing about the Church

    4. Nothing about the Church

    5. this is about… doctors?
