Forget teams of doctors and high costs. NOVOS customers like Amy and Julie saw objectively better anti-aging results without breaking the bank. Effective, affordable solutions are within your reach. See how they did it:

It may take something like curing cancer for people to wake up! R&D AGI, that is all that is needed

The rich don’t want to cure diseases. Big Pharma would lose its entire business model 😂

He should be way easier to point out the the cheap generic medications and changes that are effective. To find the corruption in the medical and pharma system.

Does anyone know what "drugs in the clinic" means? Clinical trials on humans? Or approved and ready to treat patients?

“Once the platform works, biology becomes programmable.” Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, says AI drug discovery won’t progress gradually. It will look more like AlphaFold, years of quiet infrastructure work, then a sudden leap where the system can scale across entire disease areas.

I had a chance to sit down with Demis Hassabis to discuss his goal of solving intelligence and using it to help cure all disease. But what I found most compelling wasn't the scale of the mission, but Demis Hassabis himself. His level of focus is extraordinary. We talked about the personal cost of pursuing a mission this ambitious, and the tension between the two sides of his work: the CEO of a commercial entity and the scientist driven by a humanitarian vision. It was an absolutely fascinating conversation, and a deep honor to speak with one of the most important minds of our time. Thank you to the Google DeepMind team for having me.

Demis Hassabis, the Nobel Prize winner who runs Google DeepMind just described the most consequential project on earth, and most people have no idea it exists. The project is called Isomorphic Labs and the goal is to end the way drugs have been developed for the last century. Here is the problem it is trying to solve. Developing a single drug today takes an average of 10 years, costs billions of dollars, and fails 90 percent of the time before it ever reaches a patient. Of every 10 drugs that enter clinical trials, only one makes it through. The other nine years of work, the other billions of dollars, the other scientific careers, gone. Hassabis believes AI can collapse that entire process from identifying a disease target to designing a compound that binds to it, predicts how it behaves in the body, and minimizes side effects , end to end, on a computer, before a single experiment is run. The foundation is AlphaFold, the AI system that solved one of biology's hardest problems predicting the 3D structure of every protein in the human body and won him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2024. But knowing a protein's shape is only one part of designing a drug. Isomorphic is building what Hassabis describes as adjacent systems , AlphaFold 3, AlphaFold 4, and now a unified model called IsoDDE , that take the next steps. From designing the actual chemical compound that binds to the protein, predicting its binding strength, identifying new pockets to target that no one has ever found before. IsoDDE more than doubles the accuracy of AlphaFold 3 on the hardest protein-ligand prediction benchmarks that exist. Isomorphic is already running 18 to 19 live drug programs, cardiovascular disease, cancer, immunology in partnership with Eli Lilly, Novartis, and Johnson and Johnson. The first human clinical trial of a fully AI-designed drug is expected by the end of 2026. If that trial succeeds, it will be the first time in history that a drug put into a human body was designed not by a team of chemists working for a decade but by an AI working for months. Hassabis's long-term vision is even more direct, one day you describe a disease, click a button, and a drug blueprint comes out the other side. AI will solve almost all diseases within 10 years.

📁 Demis Hassabis, CEO of DeepMind, says AI could be the most beneficial technology humanity has ever created. He explains that its potential includes curing diseases, accelerating drug discovery, and solving core biological problems, as seen with AlphaFold and Isomorphic. But he warns the outcome is not guaranteed. He compares it to an Industrial Revolution ten times bigger and ten times faster, bringing massive transformation and unavoidable disruption.
