The Machine That Did Science: Claude AI Uncovers a CRISPR-Like Gene-Editing System
By TechShots Studio

Anthropic revealed that a swarm of automated Claude AI agents autonomously searched massive genomic databases to discover a novel enzyme system named Array-Associated Reverse Transcriptase (ART). Found in bacteria-infecting viruses and bearing structural similarities to CRISPR, this milestone breakthrough highlights the accelerating power of AI in biological discovery.
