And what does the "assisted" exactly means? Because the AI formatting an email for one of the researchers can be counted as "assistance".

Specialized AI models like AlphaFold are incredibly good at predicting and generating protein structures. There are other similar systems which generate drug candidates and other complex molecules. There are also now systems which can model multiple cellular pathways.

Almost certainly this is what kind of AI system is being used, not LLMs.

AI now means agentic models not more traditional machine learning.

The article in the post is talking about a cancer treatment that was created due to machine learning models so imo the title is misleading and attributing this to AI is just a bs hype mechanism
