How Deep Learning is Accelerating Drug Discovery in Pharmaceuticals - KDnuggets

There's a common refrain among the chronically disappointed, it goes a little something like this: "if this is the future, where is my jetpack?" Juxtaposing this longing for a retro-future against the wonder-world of ubiquitous computing, programmable cells, and renascent space exploration can make the gripe sound out-of-sorts on a cursory examination. For some people this misplaced nostalgic futurism can be remarkably persistent. This causes a tendency to cling to predictions which look quaint in retrospect, ignoring the astounding reality that nobody could have predicted. However, with deep learning for drug discovery we are now able to predict so much more!
