This may happen sooner than even @sama thinks. E.g., I’m about to test a cancer immunotherapy idea that OpenAI’s o1 model gave me last week! While it still requires significant time & effort to carry out the wet lab work, if it works, this would be an incredible AI collaboration!

Sam Altman says AI will someday be able to cure cancer in collaboration with humans by suggesting wet lab experiments to do and then thinking about the results

@Blueyatagarasu
Amazing. Would you say it is a useful collaborator for your line of work? Does it seem to have good ideas (even if you haven't tested them yet)?

@DeryaTR_
The o1 model definitely is capable, but you need to know what to ask and be specific. It won’t come up with great ideas if you just say ‘cure cancer.’ I’ll be sharing some of this soon.

@koltregaskes
Woah. I'm very curious how you get on.
5/51
@DeryaTR_
I have more strategies too
[Quoted tweet]
One strategy I’ve found that works amazingly well if you want the o1 model to come up with new ideas is to ask it to think about the potential problems with each of the ideas. Then, have it iterate on each idea & repeat this process, say 5-10 times, improving with each iteration.

Curious, how are you going to test it?

@DeryaTR_
By doing experiments in the lab.

@DeryaTR_
Oh, really? Then why did 600,000 people die of cancer in the U.S. alone last year? And millions more around the world?

Been brainstorming some ideas with that - saves a lot of time on research. Wish I could test them though

Excellent idea. I've searched but haven't found anyone giving credit to OAI for the success of their research (yet).

hey, rooting for your success in this! could you tell more about how he gave you this idea? im curious to know how much of it was a completely new approach and how much was inspired by the input you gave him

@TS86142
That’s incredible! I hope you will find a cure to save millions of people!

if AI cracks cancer before pharma does, it’s gonna be the plot twist of the century. humans too slow. hold my dataset.

If you have a lot of information on PDF’s, which I assume you probably do, MyAiDrive lets you use o1 with PDF’s.

@HemenJ
please, don't post this stuff before you actually do the thing. If you have already tried OTHER o1 suggestions, then talk about those, but don't talk about FUTURE things you're gonna try and talk about it ultra "hype-istically". Its just social masturbation

@J65516006
That's interesting. What did you ask it to give the idea?

4o is so useful as a research assistant for drug synthesis, I've already come up with 12 novel methamphetamine analogues.

@MarcJ2327
This is already happening; although we are not finding any cancer cure yet, there are models that are already being used to dictate wet lab work.
