Molecular biology, as the field came to be called 3 , pushed biology from an object of study, driven forward by gentleman scientists and precocious country clergymen, into a tool with which to solve urgent problems. Recombinant DNA technologies were invented in the 1970s.

I’ve chosen these two because I think they are the linchpin by which we’ll be able to build broadly useful AI models for cell and molecular biology. Synthesizing a single human protein-coding gene costs several hundred dollars and even a simple PCR machine (used for amplifying DNA) costs between $1,500 and $50,000.
