Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence model capable of signaling whether previously unknown human genetic mutations may cause disease, according to the Financial Times. The technique draws on genetic information from hundreds of thousands of species — mainly animals — and, according to its creators, outperforms existing systems, including Google DeepMind’s AlphaMissense.
The innovation promises to give clinicians additional insight when dealing with cases involving extremely rare or genetically unique conditions. Rare diseases affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide, yet many remain undiagnosed due to limited data on the mutations responsible.
