AI "Evo 2" modeling DNA for all life forms

 There has been a post from UC Berkley Engineering about the studies conducted by Arc Institute on AI genetics technology. This AI can identify patterns in genome sequences of many organisms, creating genomes the size of simple bacterial DNA. This new techonology has many implications as within the human genome it can identify mutations casuing disease or make artificial genomic sequences. This upgrade from the original Evo 1 which only read single cell genomes now has the information to understand nucleotide sequencing in plants, animals, singel celled organisms, etc. 

    

        The researches have found the posibilities for this new AI limiteless as this ability to read genome sequences in shorter time then ever before can lead to much medical progression. Being able to recognize genomic reasoning for protein deficiencies or cancer at extremely high accuracy. This means you can model genomes that give you the ability to make genome treatments that effect only a specific area and have less side effects. Further understanding human and pathogen DNA which can lead to many progressions in modern genetic understanding, where will this Evo 2 AI take genetic sciences?
