ScienceAnthropic says Claude AI model discovers CRISPR-like enzyme system
Anthropic says its Claude model autonomously found a new enzyme system in bacterial DNA after 21 hours searching a DNA-sequence database. The company suspects it may represent a new gene-editing mechanism, but its function and practical potential remain unknown. Experts called the finding exciting while warning that a CRISPR-like pattern is not necessarily a new CRISPR technology.
