This is the first time AI systems are able to write coherent genome-scale sequences", says Brian Hie, a computational biologist at Stanford University, California. "The next step is AI-generated life", says Hie, but his colleague Samuel King adds that "a lot of experimental advances need to occur in order to design an entire living organism". The study, by Hie, King and colleagues, was posted on the preprint server bioRxivon 17 September and is not yet peer reviewed,
