Why I’m Not Worried that ChatGPT Will Replace Me as a Biology Textbook Author

PLOS: DNA Science

As genetics morphed into genomics, artificial intelligence stepped in, layering the combinatorial information of comparative genomics onto DNA sequences. Train an algorithm on the DNA sequences of a known disease-causing gene, then search for identical or highly similar sequences in cells from other individuals to assist diagnosis.

mRNA was the intermediate stage between DNA and protein, a dynamic entity that shifted depending on the second-to-second needs of the cell, able to point out if a cell was cancerous or stressed, what kind of cell it was, and so on. He also writes for a blog focused on the intersection of biology and AI at owlposting.com.
