Drug discovery is one of the most expensive pursuits in modern industry. Finding a single viable molecule can take a decade and cost billions, and most candidates still don’t make it. A generation of AI startups has promised to fix that – most have made the problem less painful for researchers, who are already technically sophisticated enough to use the tools.
But SandboxAQ thinks the…

In the past few years, creative marketplaces and platforms have realized they are sitting on a data gold mine, and they can either use that data to develop AI models or turn it into a source of revenue by licensing it to other AI labs.

Now, one startup is emerging with an unlikely data…
