Google's Gemini AI Solves Decade-Old Superbug Mystery in 48 Hours

London - Google's Gemini AI has solved a decade-old scientific enigma related to superbug resistance in just 48 hours. Professor José R. Penadés from Imperial College London used Gemini to investigate how superbugs develop resistance to antibiotics. The AI independently reached the same conclusion the team had spent years proving through experiments and theoretical analysis. Gemini also generated four novel, scientifically viable hypotheses, opening new research avenues. The AI's ability to replicate the team's unpublished findings and propose new theories has sparked both excitement and concern among researchers. Penadés views AI as a revolutionary tool that can transform scientific knowledge generation, particularly in developing new treatments against superbugs.
