AI is a time machine, compressing years of lab work into days. Digital organisms simulate biology at every scale for drug discovery. AI-optimized sensor placement achieves the same results with 1% of traditional compute. Healthcare AI can predict disease 20 years early. But here's the reality check: zero generative AI systems have FDA approval for clinical use. Zero. You'll explore the gap between academic proof-of-concept and clinical deployment, the dual-use risk where the same models design both therapeutics and pathogens, and the central tension this entire series builds toward: we're accelerating discovery at unprecedented speed—but at what risk? How do we regulate systems that constantly learn and evolve? This finale leaves you with the right question to sit with.
