Original: Roundtables: A Conversation With the Creator of AI-Designed Viruses
MIT Technology Review is hosting a roundtable conversation with the scientist behind viruses designed using artificial intelligence. The discussion is expected to cover how AI tools are being used to engineer viral genomes, the research goals behind such work, and the biosafety and biosecurity concerns raised by making synthetic viruses with machine learning. The session invites readers to join and question the researcher directly about the implications.
Why now: AI-designed viruses raise urgent questions about biotechnology risks and the boundaries of AI research.
