Anthropic 请来了 AlphaFold 之父，加上 4 亿美元买的团队，这是在生物 AI 上真砸钱。
Anthropic 在2025年4月以4亿美元收购一支生物技术团队，近日又聘请了AlphaFold主要创造者、诺贝尔奖得主John Jumper。Jumper在Google DeepMind工作近9年后加入Anthropic。Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei曾预测AI可将100年的生物进步压缩到10年内。此举显示Anthropic正大规模布局AI辅助生物科技。

Anthropic is going big on biology. In April they paid $400M for a biotech team. Now they hired the Nobel prize winner who built AlphaFold. In 2024, @DarioAmodei wrote that AI could compress 100 years of biological progress into 10. He definitely meant it. I really think biology is the most important use case in AI right now. I don't know much about it but I think it's pretty incredible what humans have managed to do with drug discovery. Now imagine humans + AI at that same problem. Things just accelerate! Helping people live longer and better. John Jumper @JohnJumperSci A bit of news: After nearly 9 years, I have decided to leave Google DeepMind and join Anthropic (after taking some time to recharge). I am incredibly grateful for my time at GDM. @demishassabis took a real chance letting me lead the AlphaFold team just six months after finishing my PhD, and the entire GDM team taught me so much about how to do great science. GDM is a special place, and I’ll still be excited to hear about what amazing things they discover next. 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 3 🔄 0 ❤️ 8 👀 761 📊 3 ⚡
