The problem here is some tropical diseases researches like malaria just don’t get enough funding because of, well money. The main funding for these research areas are trusts and donation, not industry where the money are. Industry doesn’t want to fund these reasearches especially foundational parts meaning we just can’t find the cure. Sure they’ll sell the cure if they have it, no incentive not to. But there’s no incentive unfortunately to find the cure. My prof had to change his research area because of this.

Amazing the AI robot doing chemistry. We're really going into a whole new world. Thanks to the Economist for being real with AI instead of most legacy media that just wants to sneer at this amazing tehnology that will likely out compete them.
Do you realize that most problems in this world are caused by spiritual misery like human greed? Human greed, for example, leads to exploited working classes, enslaved and tortured animals, environment destruction, civilisation diseases, etc. Yes, AI can help. But people should, in the first place, start to "cultivate their inner universe". They must start to live meaningful lives and run societies in a manner that is more just.
at 3:50 he says you can generate the needles instead of looking for a needle in a haystack. Thats is the perfect way the phrase it. Many times, traditional research is trial and error, constantly tweaking and looking for the right answer to one problem. AI in this field can basically just help generate the answers
Wow the lab robot looks cool. In an analytical chemistry lab there are lots of tedious jobs, it would be interesting to see if the robot can keep on improving and do most of the manual work
Would love to see AI doing all the double checking of experimental results that doesn’t really get done now because you need to have novel, exciting ideas to get research grants.

Yep, not to speak of smaller more managable problems that mostly affect us in first world countries. Let this sink in, not only could we make the world as a whole a way better place, we could make the first world into paradise, if only we grow a spine and do it.
Sure it will help. But have you ever wondered why some countries have way lower cancer rates than others? Even if high age and genetics are filtered out? Give it a thought.
I don't want to be negative, but related to health, couldn't we focus on life style interventions, instead of just always trying to solve problems with drugs.
It likely will not know more than humans know and program it with. It will be a source of information and can likely replace having to do research as it comes up with an answer at once. It can connect the dots but I very much doubt that it can come up with the dots.
Hello: Sean Nelson, Scientist. 10 years ago I accurately would have told you A.I. was sheer hype and that although the memorizing and computing capacity of modern computers was something, human and even animal reason have immense advantages in terms of both intelligence and achievement, profundity and practicality. The crux of this reality comes down to the lack of a motive; Computers and robots have no motivation to be intelligent or actually think(and to think brilliantly is often to go against the flow,) such as Darwinian biological life-forms have. But I came up with the field of synthetic genetics, and I've had scientists working on it; along with other fields of actual A.I.. But I must alert you that everybody is saying the words 'Artificial Intelligence,' but 'Intelligence' is a very high bar that few indeed have reached.
bro what is this, i dont think enough research is done in alignment to human values, to valuing human interference and updating software. So ai might achieve these goals, but what will it destroy as a result? All this is awesome if we are able to stop ai, if it goes too far in our opinion and the ai doesn't see our opinion as an obstacle it needs to learn to navigate around to achieve its initial goal. Because sometimes, we don't see the cost of achieving a goal until we start the journey.
AI finds the patterns in complex systems. Based on what is already tested. Results of which always need to be checked for false correlations and it making up data. **It does not have imagination.** extrapolating new ideas will be us working in tandem with the really useful tool of AI. AI for me is computers *at last* doing what you really want them to do - the tedium, assistant at your elbow. The issue will come when so much AI content is skewing AI correlations - like images now on the internet so many are AI generated that when AI generates new images it is going to go down a loop of self referencing. A distinction between true images and artificial needs to be made …
Very sceptical of the chemists ai robots claim. Looking at the speed it moves im struggle to believe its that superior to a human unless the experiments are doing are literally the simplest ever with everything all in one place.
Holy cow, would everyone please freak out, this AI revolution would make practically everything useless. Buy gold now, it would be the new form of premium currency. Yeah… those ‘technology’ of your would be dirt cheap in could have years, it’s now or never. Save your $$$ now, don’t buy anything related to tech (clown emoji).
Why are there better grounds to expect AI to be a larger game changer than the internet? It is being suggested but not explained. Personally the internet feels to me like a more important game changer than AI or if I'm being generous equally important.
@@nigel-uno sure I see enormous potential for that kind of AI. But I'm talking about the AI that we actually have today and are likely to have in the near and mid term future. Which is not even close to the type of AI your are describing. It is not clear to me why it is reasonable to expect that the AI that we currently have and will have in the near future is going to be even bigger then the internet (which is a very very high bar)
@@danielvandermaas5370 If it's not clear how the AI of today can even revolutionize the world, you did not watch the video or possibly you did not understand the concepts discussed like AlphaFold. It is quite clear that AI even in the near future that use agentic reasoning will affect nearly every industry. In the short span of 5 years, AI has gone from being used only for analyzing datasets to being able to mimic speech near perfectly (see Google's NotebookLLM podcast feature) and handle multi step tasks to reach an objective. The tasks which were self assigned. Go look up the AI that lied to a TaskRabbit worker to solve captcha. That is from over a year ago. 5 years is literally nothing and huge amounts of technological progress was made. To think AI won't continue to make huge strides progress is wishful thinking.
Cures, plural. Cancers come in different kinds and for different reasons. Solving cancer in general is going to be a massive undertaking. I do think AI will speed that along though!
You would rather die out of spite. AI is here to discover life-saving medicine, help us with difficult problems and make us understand the world better.
