"they can be small molecules that inactivate essential molecular targets in humans" - aka a poison. I mean we deal with the reality of poisons plenty fine right? This isn't x-risk stuff.

I was an experimental synbio person for decades, and I did plenty of microbial pathogen work. I've also worked on frontier LLMs for the last decade. All of this stuff is gated by experimental effort, not AI!

My post said you still needed to run the experiments, but if you think AI can't help to improve bioweapons compared to humans alone, I disagree.
