Key quotes
· 3 pulledWe believe frontier AI should meaningfully advantage those defenders—and that doing so requires responsible deployment structures and trusted access models that put advanced capabilities in the hands of vetted partners who are building new biodefense tools.
AI is accelerating progress across biology and the life sciences, creating new opportunities to advance scientific discovery, strengthen public health, and build resilience against biological threats.
As these capabilities become more powerful, the institutions working to prevent, detect, and respond to biological threats need equally powerful tools.
