Considering the Potential Risks of AI in the Life Science

– The formation of biological weapons is not a new concept or danger, but the possibility of AI-active biological tools to affect this risk is a new model.

-AI tools, which are important for understanding the disease method and developing a new anti -disease, has been greatly developed in the past few years.

-The AI ​​tools for drug discovery applications can produce thousands of molecules as potential drug candidates a day, a feat that can take years without AI methods.

-Ai- Data and research studies that evaluate the risks of biological tools are lacking.

A New Report The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, developed by a specialist panel, evaluates how AI’s biological tools can uniquely affect the risk of bio -security, and how to reduce these risks is used in such tools.

AI-Biological Tools contribute to several aspects of bio-defense, which improves infectious disease monitoring through pandemic tracking and predictions, and increasing diagnostic tests or drugs such as anti-infectious diseases. Research programs that produce and build information about the biology of infectious agents help help develop such counter.

The report recommends that the biology of infectious agents be better understood, conducting bio -surveillance programs, and continuing to support research programs to utilize AI tools to develop medical response measures.

Light -high recommendations include:

• Federal agencies should provide strong incentives and infrastructure for high quality, public -accessible biological data scale, curse, integration, and permanent maintenance.
• Support funding efforts and infrastructure that can create data and training sets according to Biological applications.
• Further research in the new method for the screening of nucleic acid synthesis, which is to take advantage of AI -capable biological tools for screening, need to become an effective control point and potential strategy to reduce the potential risks of bio -security.
• Federal agencies that consider the House or Fund Biological database consider them strategic assets and enforce strong data provision mechanisms to maintain high standards of data.
• The US Department of Defense and the US AI Safety Institute should develop a strategy to evaluate data availability and quality, and its associated AI-capacity, which emerges to evaluate changes in the landscape.
  • If a clear association between viral continuity and wireless parameters is known, then evaluate the ability of the AI ​​model to predict or design pathogenicity and/or wireless.
  • If the strong viral philosophynecinum datases associated with the outbreak data are available, then evaluate the development of a new transmittee’s new AI model that may be used to design new risks.
• In order to find the most effective methods of implementation, AI-capable of biological tools must include practitioners and developers, as organisms and other developers engage to evaluate the effects of screening on public health preparation and response.
• To maximize the benefits of AI in biology, the US Federal Research Funding Agencies such as the National Institute of Health, Advanced Research Projects for Health, Defense Advanced Research Projects, are available to the National Sciences and Finance Foundation, and other Funds, and are available at the Department of Finance.
• Although the Public-Private Partnership is a reasonable approach to the formation of AI-owned data resources on the government-owned infrastructure, a dedicated organization is the focus of sustainable national data stream resources. The National Artificial Intelligence Research Research (Nairr) pilot should look for a approach to the establishment of central reservoirs for the training of AI models.

The Defense Department requested this diagnosis.
