A shocking number of synthetic biologists got into it because of jurassic park.

Excited to launch the @Ginkgo Cloud Lab service today! Recently, GPT-5 ordered experiments from Ginkgo's autonomous lab in our work with @OpenAI below -- now we're making our lab available to users (or their AI models) in the cloud to order lab experiments and get back data online. Play around with it now! You can ask our agent about your protocol and it will do its best to evaluate if we can run it and what it would cost. cloud.ginkgo.bio/protocols To start we've launched 3 Ginkgo Certified Protocols, two around cell free protein expression and one to make bacterial pixel art 😀 We will be adding new protocols weekly -- at first ones we certify, but eventually users will order whatever experiment they want as long as we have the needed equipment on our autonomous lab! We hope that Cloud Labs will someday allow anyone to be a scientist with their own lab just like personal computers and cloud data centers democratized programming and the web. More in thread 🧵and happy to answers Qs if you post!
