#Anthropic’s biolab made a discovery it’s comparing to #Crispr
Over 21hr, nearly 950 #Claude #AIagents worked through 210M tokens before one spotted an unusual repeating pattern in the dataset and flagged for human review. Further analysis and lab testing revealed “previously uncharacterized enzyme system found in #bacteriophages,” a type of #virus that infects #bacteria.
Anthropic said it is still working to understand what the enzyme system does.
