  1. On the Opportunities and Risks of Foundation Models (2021 · 3,160 citations)
    This Stanford CRFM report surveys a new way of building AI. Large models are pretrained on broad data, usually through self-supervision at scale, and then adapted to many downstream tasks. The authors name these "foundation models" (examples: BERT, GPT-3, CLIP, DALL-E). The report does not propose a dataset or…
  2. CRISPR-GPT for Agentic Automation of Gene-editing Experiments (2024 · 163 citations)
    General-purpose LLMs such as ChatGPT-4 often perform poorly when asked to plan CRISPR experiments. They can produce guide RNA sequences that match no real genomic location, omit practical details like reagents, off-target checks and protocols, or bury useful advice in irrelevant text. The authors present CRISPR-GPT…
