What if AI could build its own biology models — and beat human experts? We built VCHarness: an autonomous system that proposes models, writes code, runs experiments, and learns from results in a closed loop. Tested on CRISPR gene knockdown across 4 human cell lines — it outperforms expert-designed baselines. From months of manual model-building → days of autonomous search. 🔬 Blog: genbio.ai/harnessing-ai-… 📄 Paper: biorxiv.org/content/10.648… 🌐 Website: genbio-ai.github.io/VCHarness

Okay, this is very cool: an AI system that autonomously designs virtual cell models. It's called VCHarness, created by GenBio AI. Today, the manual process of designing these models is not just slow - it limits what gets tried. The system is named after the harness concept that is everywhere in AI right now: the idea that the system wrapped around a model matters as much as the model itself. I explain it in more detail in the latest issue of BAIO (where I also have a special treat for subscribers). Link below.

Most AI conversations are still centered on LLMs. GenBio AI Co-Founder & Chief Scientist @ericxing is already three steps ahead. @ben_guggenheim @washingtonpost just sat down with him to break down why LLMs are "book smart" and how GenBio AI's world model can simulate an entire cell, run virtual drug trials, and potentially compress decades of drug discovery into a computational prompt.

Cells aren't islands. Their representation and function depend on neighbors. We introduce AIDO.Tissue, a foundation model that learns biology by thinking in cellular neighborhoods. It not only outperforms competing models but also demonstrates a scaling behavior with neighboring context. Learn more👇 genbio.ai/aido-tissue/

Many “virtual cell” efforts restrict themselves to cell-level assays like scRNA-seq. To build a true world model for biology, we need to move beyond the individual cell and model the tissue context as well. GenBio-PathFM is a new histopathology foundation model from GenBio AI. It is the only SOTA model trained without using proprietary image archives, and the strongest open-weight model to date. Highlights: - SOTA performance on public pathology benchmarks (THUNDER, HEST, PathoROB - shown below). - Unprecedented data efficiency, requiring 5x-15x fewer WSIs for training. - Novel two-stage pretraining strategy combining DINO and JEPA.

Predicting how cells respond to genetic or chemical changes is a fundamental challenge in drug discovery. While the potential of biological Foundation Models (FMs) has been widely discussed, their actual superiority over simple statistical baselines has remained a subject of significant debate in the field. In our latest preprint, we provide a definitive evaluation of FMs for perturbation prediction. By benchmarking over 600 model variants, we demonstrate that FMs, when trained on the right modalities and integrated effectively, provide a significant leap in predictive accuracy. Our findings confirm that FMs are not just a theoretical improvement, but a practical tool for building accurate, actionable simulations of cellular behavior.

Insightful remarks from GenBio AI Co-Founder and Chief Scientist @ericxing at #WEF26 on why the next phase of AI will be defined by world models, reasoning, and interaction, not just larger language models. Learn more 👇
MBZUAI@mbzuai

AI today is powerful, but incomplete: language alone is not intelligence. Speaking at #WEF26 USA House Davos, #MBZUAI President and University Professor @ericxing explained why today’s AI systems are reaching their limits and why the next phase of AI demands a fundamentally different approach. Large language models (LLMs), he noted, deliver what he calls “book intelligence”: systems trained on text that can retrieve and recombine written knowledge. However, real intelligence extends beyond language, requiring the ability to act in the world, collaborate with others, and ask new questions through physical, social, and philosophical intelligence.

It was a pleasure to share the stage with @Yoshua_Bengio, @YejinChoinka, @harari_yuval, and @nxthompson, at #WEF26 in Davos to discuss "Next Phase of Intelligence". I shared my reservation of current LLM-based systems bringing us toward AGI very soon, and spoke for the needs for substantial innovations in representation, architecture, and learning paradigm before we can reach truly physical, social, and philosophical intelligence. My candid response to @nxthompson's questions on what to go next, and what existing architecture to avid is: we must move past LLMs to focus on World Model to unlock physical intelligence, and we can't build a consistent, safe, and interactable world model by learning only in the "thought space" (i.e. latent space". We need new architectures like the GLP (Generative Latent Prediction) that support stateful representation, long-horizon reasoning, action-conditioning, and most importantly, close-loop training where learning takes place in both latent (thoughts) and observation (reality) space to ensure grounding, fidelity, and certifiability; and we also must go beyond passive self-supervised learning on pattern matching and reconstruction with a stationary model, but active and proactive learning on task-completion objectives and cost-conscious rewards over a non-stationary model that can improve not just during pre-train, but also in- and post-action during serving. Our PAN world model builds on such design principles.
MBZUAI@mbzuai

Is AI actually "intelligent," or just "book smart?" 📚 Speaking at #WEF26 earlier, MBZUAI President and University Professor @ericxing said that we are still in the "primitive age" of AI. While models like K2-Think (built from scratch by Institute of Foundation Models) are pushing boundaries, Professor Eric breaks down the 4 levels of intelligence AI is yet to master: * Text-based Intelligence: What we have now. It's "book knowledge" that often lacks real-world consistency. * Physical Intelligence: The ability to navigate the world. As he shared, while he was hiking the Alps: Map apps are great, but can't tell you what to do when the snow gets too steep. * Social Intelligence: The nuance of collaboration. AI doesn't yet understand "self" or how to work in a team to run a company. * Philosophical Intelligence: True agency and curiosity - this is the ability to learn without being asked. Professor Eric emphasized that reaching these stages requires a fundamental shift toward new architectures that can reason consistently. By prioritizing open-source models, we allow the public to study the nuances of safety and risk while promoting global adoption.
