　　“Weve been able to demonstrate that using these tools, we can roughly three times the speed of discovering and developing medicines towards the clinic and dramatically reduce the costs,” Gibson said on the show.

　　“Ultimately, the most important lever is going to be improving the probability of success … 90% of drugs that go into clinical trials today fail … and its because biology is so complex and machine learning and AI are the right tools when you bring the right data and the right compute to bear to help us make sense and really decode biology.”
