AI agents can now make real biology finds from one broad prompt

Anthropic's life sciences lab found a novel enzyme system with CRISPR-like repeated DNA sequences in a jumbo phage after giving Claude only a high-level prompt, a result CRISPR pioneer Feng Zhang called genuinely intriguing. The same roundup reported that NVIDIA's SWE-Serve benchmark gives coding agents 53 real SGLang inference-engineering tasks, where patches passing conventional tests fail live-serving checks about a third of the time and pass@1 across 11 models ranges from 35% to 75.5%. Google DeepMind also released Gemini 3.8 Flash and Flash-Lite text-to-speech models that build custom voices from prompts and take line-by-line direction on emotion and pacing across AI Studio, the Gemini API and Vercel's AI Gateway.
