How does AI help genetic research?

AI acts like a super-smart detective, sifting through vast amounts of genetic data much faster and more accurately than humans ever could. In this case, it pinpointed a specific DNA pattern that functions as a genetic 'on switch' for many genes. This capability speeds up discoveries and helps us understand complex biological processes.
