    AI will make many parts of the c=

    become more important than ever. Models will become=
    so fast that UI
    will be generated on the fly. It will take a while for t=
    his to happen.
    However, by that time, while people will still be employed=

    Anthropic has confirmed that it has a wet biology lab in the Bay Area where it uses AI models to run physical
