Microsoft launches biological world model Quine, multiple giants double down on AI4S

Microsoft Research has launched an experimental AI research system, Quine, building a biological multimodal world model covering genomics, proteins, chemistry, RNA, cell states, and biological imaging, and constructing an interactive harness framework that connects models, scientific tools, literature, and researchers. Microsoft has partnered with the Broad Institute, jointly established by MIT and Harvard University, to apply Quine to cancer biology research. In one case, it completed the predictive ranking of the effects of thousands of compounds on pancreatic cancer cell states over a single weekend, saving months of experimental work, but the system is still in an early research stage. In addition, Anthropic established a life sciences research team and laboratory on September 23, OpenAI launched GPT-Rosalind for life sciences in April this year, and Nvidia announced in January this year a joint effort with Eli Lilly to build an AI innovation laboratory.

AI assistant Instinct, founded by a 23-year-old college dropout, saw its valuation rise from $2.5 billion to $10 billion in two months

AI assistant Instinct saw its valuation rise from $2.5 billion to $10 billion in less than two months, with its Series C led by Sequoia Capital, Benchmark, and Coatue, and only 14 full-time employees. Founder Noah Shinn is 23 years old, dropped out of college, published the Agent paper Reflexion at NeurIPS as first author, and later joined Sierra as a research scientist. Instinct uses authorized permissions for email, calendar, credit cards, and more to book tickets, shop, cancel subscriptions, and negotiate insurance for users via text message or phone instructions; users spend an average of more than $1,300 per month through it, but its excessive permission requests have also sparked privacy controversy.

Fluidstack Completes $1.5 Billion Financing at a Valuation of $18 Billion

AI infrastructure company Fluidstack has completed $1.5 billion in financing at a post-money valuation of $18 billion, led by quantitative trading giant Jane Street, with its valuation rising from $7.5 billion to $18 billion within 60 days. Its core asset is a multi-billion-dollar compute contract signed with Anthropic, and it is participating in Anthropic's plan to deploy up to 1 million Google TPUs, becoming the first publicly disclosed TPU data center operator other than Google. The article points out that this circular financing, in which the funder simultaneously acts as customer and guarantor, carries systemic risk, and that Fluidstack's revenue is highly concentrated in a single customer such as Anthropic.
