Our team has been building for 18+ months in stealth on applying superintelligent AI to bio. The humanity-scale transformative potential is pretty mind boggling. I’m excited to finally be able to share more on what we’ve built. We’re still keeping it mostly under wraps (except

First, our ‘why’ for focusing on biology. My co-founder Sean & I are both passionate about shaping a future significantly better than where we are today. Technology is by no means a panacea, and can absolutely move humanity backward, but it can also do tremendous good. We believe

We found that in pursuit of the future we envisioned, all roads lead to biology. Biology, being the language of life, can be the technology “language” for solving many humanity-scale challenges. What’s more, biology is inherently programmable. Shoutout to Matt Mandel for

The complexity of biology is immense and beyond human capability to hold. But we imagine a world where superintelligence can ‘crack’ the complexity. This means discovering new molecules. But it also means 'cracking' viable bioproduction of new and existing molecules.

Perhaps less discussed in the mainstream, the complexity of bioproduction is also immense. For a single target molecule, there are a huge range of bioprocesses and bio(chemical) pathways that can be used for production. With enzyme based processes (which we like), we can

I still can’t say fully what we’re up to…but what I can say is my co-founder was previously working on applying AI to manufacturing. He saw how powerful an interface between real world production and AI can be. We started wondering what that would look like for AI x bio…

A critical piece here I want to be clear on is recognizing our safety responsibilities in pursuing this realm. I believe those working in biology, or perhaps any form of production, should abide by the ethos of the hippocratic oath. Ultimately, our pursuit is for the good of

fin for now: Biology is the great equalizer. Everyone lives and everyone dies. Today, our actions as a species are creating massive waves of change that threaten to undermine our environment to the point of being unlivable, first for other species, and possibly eventually for

Many of the boldest aspirations for AI, including Sam Altman's here, are about AI making scientific discoveries. The sexy aspect of that will be discoveries about the universe or novel therapeutic methods. Those are great! But I think people underestimate the less sexy possible

great strategy piece on AI x Bio by Maggie Basta. "a clear 'what’s different this time' is also just AI" -- no doubt. my 2 cents to add: 1) pharma is not the only opportunity for bio. outside it you can get to sales in weeks not decades (b/c the products are drop-ins of

we are built on 3 takes: 1. current biotech strategies are (mostly) trash 2. current biotech hardware is (mostly) trash 3. AI is going to explode bio possibilities

Before chemistry, every community produced in harmony with nature. They used biology, because that's all there was. At Moli we envision a future where the world uses biology, not because it is all there is, but because it is the way to live abundantly and sustainably.
