We're on the verge of AI developed drugs becoming a reality

The hope of The Human Genome Project was that it would herald a new age of precision medicine. However, the challenge turned out to be more complex and nuanced than had been imagined. Of nearly 25,000 human genes, only 2,418 have been associated with specific diseases, explaining only a small fraction of all human pathologies. In 2020, we will begin to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to create new, life-saving medicine. In the past decade, we have learned a great deal about the complexity of diseases.
