As far as I am aware of it’s not inventing anything, it’s just trained on data like “compound x kills y in vitro”, and then it’s finding other molecules with similar properties.
That’s also why most of those end up being useless, because they do not workin vivo.
The drugs were designed atom-by-atom by the AI and killed the s uperbugs in laboratory and animal tests.
… a part kinda like you were saying, then
The second gave the AI free rein from the start.
The design process also weeded out anything that looked too similar to current antibiotics. It also tried to ensure they were inventing medicines rather than soap and to filter out anything predicted to be toxic to humans.
Scientists used AI to create antibiotics for gonorrhoea and MRSA
Once manufactured, the leading designs were tested on bacteria in the lab and on infected mice, resulting in two new potential drugs.

They do that to, but not only that.
