How does AI help drug discovery?

AI can significantly accelerate the early stages of drug discovery by automating experiments and analysing vast amounts of data much faster than humans. Anthropic's Claude AI, for example, aims to command robotic lab equipment, testing potential treatments in physical settings. This could identify promising compounds more quickly and efficiently, streamlining the research process.
