I finished watching the Antic & Petrovsky podcast. Overall it was pretty good. I don't agree with his assessment of the origin via accidental tissue culturing creating a virus that then infected a human host at the WIV, but the story of his small team using AI to match the publically released genetic sequence to possible species sources …
I finished watching the Antic & Petrovsky podcast. Overall it was pretty good. I don't agree with his assessment of the origin via accidental tissue culturing creating a virus that then infected a human host at the WIV, but the story of his small team using AI to match the publically released genetic sequence to possible species sources is intriguing. In the same part of the interview he talks about how small teams with knowledge, intelligence, & asking the right questions can solve problems much easier than huge corporations with thousands of staff like Sanofi ever could. I think this was a very perceptive comment. If his team really was able to create something (a non-misfolded protein sequence using an immortal moth cell line) to be used in their product, then maybe it really is a wise use of technology to help humanity. I am open to that possibility. Another thing that makes me think he may be right is the fact that the TGA weren't interested in his invention. That tells me it may in fact have been beneficial, but the entities running the establishment wanted to harm, not help.
The last half an hour or so is very good. Agree with mostly everything he said.
