Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven tools have the ability to design new drugs, with a bit of help from humans, said Anders Hogner, from Astrazeneca plc’s R&D department at the Bio-IT World Conference & Expo Europe in London. “We don’t have anything out there yet,” he added, but the company appears to be working on it.
Rewalk Robotics Ltd. has integrated advanced sensing technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) into its latest exoskeleton prototype to enable autonomous decisionmaking. This milestone, coupled with Rewalk’s capabilities, holds enormous potential to create a new generation of exoskeletons that are more intuitive and respond to real-world conditions that users encounter daily, Rewalk CEO Larry Jasinski told BioWorld.
