Core Viewpoint - The strategic partnership between Eli Lilly, a leading pharmaceutical company, and Nvidia, a top technology giant, marks a significant shift in the pharmaceutical industry, focusing on AI-driven drug development and manufacturing processes [1][14]. Group 1: Partnership Details - Eli Lilly and Nvidia will invest $1 billion over five years to establish a joint innovation lab in the San Francisco Bay Area [1]. - The lab will not only serve as a computing center but will also aim to completely restructure the drug development process using AI [2]. - The partnership will utilize Nvidia's latest AI chip architecture, Vera Rubin, which is designed for high-precision scientific calculations essential for drug development [2][3]. Group 2: Technological Integration - The collaboration will integrate hardware and software, with Nvidia's BioNeMo platform and Eli Lilly's TuneLab platform combining to enhance drug discovery [3][4]. - BioNeMo will function as a generative AI platform for biology, capable of generating new protein structures, while Eli Lilly will contribute its extensive historical experimental data [3][4]. - The partnership aims to address the data and model gap in AI healthcare, leveraging federated learning technology [4]. Group 3: Manufacturing Innovations - The collaboration extends to manufacturing, with plans to create a "digital twin" of Eli Lilly's production line using Nvidia's Omniverse platform [5]. - This digital twin will simulate production processes to optimize supply chain efficiency, potentially leading to significant revenue increases for high-demand products [5]. Group 4: Industry Context and Implications - Eli Lilly's decision to partner with Nvidia reflects a strategic move to overcome the challenges of traditional drug development, which is often time-consuming and costly [6][7]. - The partnership signifies a shift from a "Discovery" to a "Design" paradigm in drug development, allowing for targeted molecular design rather than random screening [7][8]. - The collaboration is expected to accelerate industry changes, prompting other major pharmaceutical companies to seek similar technological partnerships [16][18]. Group 5: Future Outlook - The partnership is seen as a potential turning point in AI-driven pharmaceutical development, creating a new model of collaboration between top pharmaceutical and technology companies [15][16]. - The competition in the pharmaceutical industry is likely to intensify as companies race to secure technological alliances, with AI becoming a critical component of drug development [19][20].

我今天已经不发烧了,这次没有流鼻涕咳嗽等症状,就是肚子吃坏了,腹泻很严重,一天要上七八次洗手间,从固体拉到液体,搞得我现 在放p都不敢坐在凳子上,我怕什么你们肯定懂的。已经吃了蒙脱石散,还买了一打的外星人电解质水补充,总的来说不碍事了。 未来人类想要走出太阳系,这副碳基的皮囊就是最大的短板,怕冷、怕热、气压低了高了都不行,必须刚刚好,每天需要摄入水和食物, 还要排泄,必须保持一定量运动维持健康,否则容易生病(生理+心理),理论寿命不超过150岁,在宇宙尺度而言这太短暂了。 进化了几亿年也就这水平,其它星系的生命估计也好不到哪去。所以宇宙就是一个又一个独立的孤岛,或者说监狱,文明和文明之间谁也 遇不到谁。有人可能觉得,我的想象力不够丰富,别的星系的生命也许是我想象不到的形式呢? 可能性很小。我们由碳基形成生命不是一个巧合,而是这个物理规则的宇宙下,碳的分子结构和稳定性决定了它就是最适合的生命分子, 其它可能性也有,比如硅基、氨基、铁基,也有可能形成生命,但对环境的要求很苛刻,很不稳定。从星际航行的角度而言,这些生命体 的适应性还不如碳基,所以更没戏。 我假想过其它星球的生命,外形可能千奇百怪,但底层分子大概率和 ...
