Hello everyone. The first time I touched a calculator was at the age of 16. My father, a first generation entrepreneur, taught me that if you have to really work through the world, you have to learn to figure things on your own.My life then became an entire canvas of how I looked at everything with respect to equations, mathematics and numbers. And what I'm going to walk you all through today is the fascinating world of biology that I will try and explain through numbers. We are swimming in an information a ...

In terms of what we know about biology, we’re probably 17 to 20 orders of magnitude away between what we know and what we don't know. We want to see foundation models explode in biology that can understand not just one protein's function, but potentially any protein or any gene, any genome, in any context. We don't have that in biology yet.And so for us to get that right, we need scaled compute, scaled models and the parameters and architectures. And finally scaled data. I think we are living in the most ex ...

[Music] For a long time, I've always thought of as life as a puzzle, but a very special kind of puzzle. A puzzle where we can't see a picture in the box. And why do I say this.So, when we start life, like we're basically just learning new things. We're taking in information from the world. We're seeing the things that we like and the things that we don't like and then we somewhere along the way we come up with our personality or as I would say our way of interacting with the world.So why did I even come up ...
