🔬Bio-security is an AI Arms Race - Eric Nguyen (CEO, Radical Numerics)
Radical Numerics' CEO describes how advanced Genomic Language Models create a bio-security arms race, requiring open-source defensive tools to counter offensive capabilities.
Eric Nguyen, CEO of Radical Numerics, discusses the dual-use nature of Genomic Language Models in a bio-security arms race. He notes that earlier models like Evo 2 enabled the generation of functional viruses, while current GLMs use long-context and chain-of-thought to perform advanced biological reasoning. The company argues that pushing the frontier of these models is necessary for defensive capabilities to keep pace with offensive threats.
