Trained on over 100 million cell profiles, DeepMind’s model aims to predict DNA variants’ effects in specific cells.
Google DeepMind says its new genomics model predicts cell-specific DNA effects, with gains on an immune-cell benchmark.
Google’s new model targets demanding work; early testing suggests coding promise and flags a case of scope creep.
Human-guided AI helped verify specific Signal protocol protections in four weeks, under assumptions that include perfect cryptography.
The claimed advances target older digital signature protections and bulk factoring of legacy 1024-bit RSA keys.
Bloomberg reports the lab will have up to £200 million in AI model credits from OpenAI and Anthropic.
The UK government says the lab will use AI to strengthen resilience against biological threats.
Google DeepMind's Pushmeet Kohli says SynthID Detector also opened to the public, another step toward verifying AI-generated work.
Google DeepMind says its researchers surfaced a novel antimicrobial peptide candidate during one Antigravity session.
