For the first time, an AI model designed viruses that had never existed in nature (and they worked) 🧬 Scientists used an AI model called Evo, trained on 9 trillion nucleotides across the tree of life, to design viruses that never existed in nature. 🦠 Of ~700,000 generated genomes, they built 300 and 16 came to life, infecting and killing bacterial cells. ⚡ A few AI-designed versions actually spread faster than the natural Phi X 174 💊 The upside is phage therapy against drug-resistant infectio

The FiloBot is a self 3-D printing robot created by the Italian Institute of Technology Genoa. It’s designed to mimic vines and plants, steering using phototropism and skototropism. One of its main functions is supposed to be for gently moving rubble as to not cause further collapse while still finding those trapped. It also, unfortunately, happens to look quite phallic. The internet seems to be focused on the later… it’s hard not to see it. Enjoy some crazy science!
