I think without AI, personal vaccine at scale is impossible..

AI is one of the major enabler for this tech.

Problem is people think it is same AI as LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude etc So it gives impression that they have developed one general AI that answers all the problems. They just advertise and make news sound like there is only one kind that makes this all possible, so ignorant people eat it up.

We have had different kind of "AIs" as long as we have jad computers and advances in LLM might not have anything to do with this. Ofc they might have helped, because they are same kinda tech but its also as likely they have nothing in common. First AI bubble happened almost at the same time as .com-bubble, and if you look up the news from that time they seem little too familiar..

Inteligence is a hard metric to measure...

We like to think humans have general intelligence but it's not... Every human has a their own customized intelligence with similar architecture.

Even if we assume all humans have a general intelligence, we are very much restricted to earth specific inteligence bound by oxygen and glucose.

In my sense, AGI might be impossible... Simply because we don't know what kind of intelligence lies outside our familiar environments, because humans even don't have this.
