Basecamp Research 融资 1.4 亿美元,用基因数据训练生物 AI 模型
Inside Basecamp Research, the AI startup turning evolution into training data
一家伦敦公司拿了 Nvidia 和 Anthropic 的钱,用雨林和深海里的基因训练模型来设计抗生素,思路挺特别。
伦敦初创公司 Basecamp Research 宣布完成 1.4 亿美元融资,投资方包括 Nvidia 与 Anthropic 合作的 Anthology Fund。公司从雨林、海洋和热泉采集基因物质构建训练数据,用于设计抗生素和细胞疗法工具。CTO Phil Lorenz 在采访中表示,生物学对 AI 来说比语言问题复杂得多,基准分数好不等于产出有效分子。

Basecamp Research has raised $140 million from investors including Nvidia and Anthropic's Anthology Fund. The London company trains AI models on genetic material from rainforests, oceans, and hot springs to design antibiotics and tools for cell therapies. In an interview with THE DECODER, CTO Phil Lorenz explains why biology is a far bigger problem for AI than language, and why good scores on paper don't guarantee good molecules.
