No human can perform these levels of tasks consistently to address areas of drug synthesis research in need of breakthroughs, especially over the course of 24 hours every day. Prior types of AI typically lack effective natural language processing abilities to process and answer large amounts of intricate scientific text efficiently. LLMs used in the study had access to an existing corpus containing prior knowledge of paclitaxel biosynthesis, which allowed for foundational context when addressing new information from 10 new papers.
