AI regurgitates what it's been trained on. Life science research has a change of actually learning something that has been previously unknown. Not statistically, but through increased understanding of natural processes.

If you're looking for a target for biotech/pharma, better understanding of natural processes is a win. Ideas themselves are two for a quarter.
