I'm unsure if all these opportunities via the various tools creates an exponential development of new medicines. So many options and all take rigorous testing before we get a product.

So, maybe exponential with lots of bottlenecks?

AI can test way faster than humans because it has streamlined access to it’s computer labs. For example, the way we developed covid vaccines so quickly is because we used simulations.

True. I can imagine other medicines not being waved thru as swiftly though. I hope it doesn't hobble developments too much. I've maybe 25 years left and hope to live indefinitely.

Why 25 years?

I chose that number as it's the estimate for my age group and health status.
