runs 1000 pcr cycles while you sleep
You spend years mixing reagents, running gel electrophoresis, and failing to replicate your own results. It is mostly just glorified pipetting.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still explain why the sample is bright pink instead of clear.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 9
Our software begins logging your bench notes to optimize for actual chemical yields.
Month 9
Robotic arms replace your manual pipetting with higher precision and zero human fatigue.
Month 20
Machine learning agents design your experimental parameters to avoid wasting expensive enzymes.
Year 2.7
The lab becomes an enclosed environment where reagents move through tubes without human intervention.
Year 3.6 · D-Day
Your access card stops working because the lab no longer requires air-breathing life forms.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
