Building an early warning system for LLM-aided biological threat creation
We’re developing a blueprint for evaluating the risk that a large language model (LLM) could aid someone in creating a biological threat. In an evaluation involving both biology experts and students, we found that GPT-4 provides at most a mild uplift in biological threat creation accuracy. While this uplift is not large enough to be conclusive, our finding is a starting point for continued research and community deliberation.
As scientists probe for new insights about DNA, proteins and other building blocks of life, the NVIDIA BioNeMo framework — announced today at NVIDIA GTC — will accelerate their research. NVIDIA BioNeMo is a framework for training and deploying large biomolecular language models at supercomputing scale — helping scientists better…
Progress update: Our latest AlphaFold model shows significantly improved accuracy and expands coverage beyond proteins to other biological molecules, including ligands.
