AI-Designed Proteins and Molecules Are Not Ready-to-Use Drugs
“When we say that we design new proteins, or we say that we design new molecules, you know you know, go and bind these particular targets. We should be very clear. You know, these are not drugs. You know, these are not things that are ready to be put into a hum…”
Wickramasekara: Clinical trial optimization is a red herring versus molecule quality
“People get very focused on clinical trials because they're like the biggest line item. And they're important, don't get me wrong, but I think it's actually a bit of a red, red herring. Where, ah, yes, there are operational problems. Like, some studies are desi…”
Dent: Humans will engineer molecules with atomic precision within a few years
“Over the next few years, we are going to have the ability as a human race to engineer molecules with atomic precision.”
Osmo's Lab Houses 10,000 to 20,000 AI-Designed Molecules
“So in this room is, you know, 10, 20,000 molecules. That have all been designed by AI, and we have a digital twin of each”
Koch-Blank: Moving energy via pipeline molecules is cheaper than electrons
“Pipeline, moving molecules in a pipeline is really cheap. That's what we see in other markets. You know, there is a reason we're moving molecules to the regional power markets and then not moving electrons over copper between Europe and North America, for exam…”
Acker: A bad management team can destroy a great drug molecule
“Probably the biggest mistake that I've made in my career is underappreciating how important a good management team is, because if you have a great molecule and it meets a bad management team, you can destroy a tremendous amount of value just by making bad deci…”
