The ChatGPT of Biotech

Think of proteins as little workers in a big city, each with a specific job -- each playing a key role in the structure, function, and regulation of the body’s tissues and organs.

Hemoglobin, for example, is a protein in your red blood cells that carries oxygen from your lungs throughout your body.

Antibodies are little proteins that help defend your body from invaders, like bacteria and viruses.

Some proteins, like insulin, act as messengers. Insulin helps regulate your blood sugar levels by sending signals to cells to absorb glucose.

Hormone proteins help control processes like growth, metabolism, and fertility.

In short, without proteins, our bodies wouldn't be able to function. They're involved in almost every process that keeps us alive and well.

Enter an AI program called “Ankh.”

Ankh can "understand" and work with proteins.

Think of it like the ChatGPT for proteins.

As you may know…

ChatGPT works by trying to predict which word would make the most sense in a specific output according to a prompt.

Ankh basically tries to do the same, putting together proteins in the most logical way according to a prompt.

In essence, Ankh allows us to “talk” to the most basic building blocks of life.

Here’s why this is huge.

The Paradigm-Shift

Just as the discovery of DNA led to an explosion of innovation…

Being able to use AI to predict and understand protein behavior could revolutionize our “snip, cut, burn” paradigm of invasive medicine…

And possibly even shed light on the (still mysterious) origins of life.

Here are just a few ways it can change the game:

Drug Discovery and Development: Developing new drugs is a time-consuming and costly process. One of the challenges is understanding how a potential drug will interact with various proteins in the body. If AI can accurately predict these interactions, it could streamline drug discovery and reduce the time and cost of bringing new drugs to market.

Personalized Medicine: Every individual has unique variations in their proteins due to differences in their genes. AI that can understand and interpret these differences may pave the way for more personalized medicine, tailoring treatments to an individual's specific protein makeup.

Disease Understanding and Treatment: Many diseases, including Alzheimer's, cancer, and many genetic disorders, are caused by proteins not functioning properly. If we can better understand how these proteins work and what goes wrong in these diseases, it could lead to new treatments or even cures.

Synthetic Biology: In the field of synthetic biology, scientists are trying to design new proteins with useful functions, such as breaking down pollutants or producing biofuels. An AI that can predict how to build proteins that perform specific tasks could revolutionize this field.

Best part? Ankh is free to use.

If you’re tech savvy…

Ankh’s language models are publicly available and distributed under the Creative Commons License.

Of course, we’re on the lookout for the obvious (and non-obvious) investment angles of AI software like Ankh, of which there will be many.

Stay tuned for more on that.” – Chris C (for AltucherConfidential)
