Scientists created AI from DNA - Tech Explorist

Caltech scientists have recently developed an AI made out of DNA that can tackle a classic machine learning problem by precisely recognizing written by hand numbers. The work is a critical advance in showing the ability to program AI into engineered biomolecular circuits. Lulu Qian, assistant professor of bioengineering at Caltech said, "Though scientists have only just begun to explore creating artificial intelligence in molecular machines, its potential is already undeniable. Similar to how electronic computers and smartphones have made humans more capable than a hundred years ago, artificial molecular machines could make all things made of molecules, perhaps including even paint and bandages, more capable and more responsive to the environment in the hundred years to come." Scientists' goal behind this study is to program intelligent behaviors (the ability to compute, make choices, and more) with artificial neural networks made out of DNA.
