Every major AI lab now says it's fighting disease. We checked the claims against the original research. The AI-discovered drug furthest along in human trials comes from none of them, and the top cancer-AI company hasn't dosed a patient yet.
In this episode:
- Google: DeepSomatic found 10 new mutations in childhood leukemia samples; an NHS mammography AI caught 25% of missed interval cancers across 125,000 women.
- Microsoft: GigaTIME turns a $5 pathology slide into a tumour immune map across 24 cancer types.
- Anthropic: Claude designed working protein binders for 14 of 15 targets, including cancer targets. Lab tests only; Claude Science launched in June.
- Isomorphic Labs: cancer-first pipeline, no human trial yet, valuation talks at $40-50B.
- Insilico: AI-discovered rentosertib for incurable lung fibrosis is in a 320-patient Phase III.
- OpenAI & Biohub: GPT-Rosalind for drug discovery; a $1.8B virtual-cell effort with DeepMind and Meta.
- The translation ladder: none of the AI-discovered treatments covered is approved yet.
