AI invents new antibiotics that could kill superbugs gonorrhoea and MRSA
Artificial intelligence has created potential antibiotics for drug-resistant gonorrhoea and MRSA superbugs. Two new compounds designed by AI killed the superbugs in tests, marking a potential advancement in the antibiotic discovery field. The research by MIT suggests that AI could usher in a new era of antibiotic development, though further refinement and clinical trials are needed before these drugs can be prescribed.
