Deep learning AI Discovered New Antibiotic for the Very First Time

Humans have been using antibiotics for about 100 years. For 30 years the competent authorities have been warning of the future problem of antibiotic resistance, since higher doses or different antibiotics are needed to end them. Pathogens, whether bacteria, fungi or protists, that have been traditionally stopped with antibiotics have naturally developed resistance to the drugs used against them. This is due to the process of constant evolution that occurs in nature, but health authorities point out that the misuse and abuse of antibiotics has helped this adaptation to take place much faster than expected. Health authorities suggest that by the end of the 21st century the current antibiotics will no longer be useful and that from 2050 we may already notice the lack of response from many of them. It is estimated that by then about 10 million people will die each year from resistant infections.
