We trained a genomic language model on all observed evolution, which we are calling Evo 2.

The model achieves an unprecedented breadth in capabilities, enabling prediction and design tasks from molecular to genome scale and across all three domains of life.

🧵 A trial run - Writing about an event I appreciated. Then actually posting it.

What was it? An afternoon at the @royalsociety.org to hear six entrepreneurs and industry professionals reflect on their non-linear careers and how they landed in the field of Engineering Bio.
