The Biggest AI for Biology Yet Writes Genomes From Scratch

The article discusses Evo 2, the largest generative AI model for biology, developed by scientists at the Arc Institute, Stanford University, and Nvidia. Trained on 128,000 genomes, Evo 2 can write whole chromosomes and small genomes from scratch. It also analyzes DNA mutations affecting proteins, RNA, and overall health, particularly in non-coding regions linked to diseases. Evo 2’s software and model parameters are available to the scientific community, enabling further exploration and development of specific AI models for synthetic biology.
