Izi virusi 16 zakozwe muri laboratwari ntabwo zabonetse mu buryo busanzwe muri kamere. Ni ubwoko bwa virusi bwitwa bacteriophages, zizwiho kwibasira bagiteri gusa, bityo ntizibasire abantu, inyamaswa cyangwa ibimera.
Ubushakashatsi bwibanze kuri bacteriophage izwi nka ΦX174, ikunze kwibasira bagiteri ya E. coli. Abashakashatsi bifashishije AI yitwa EVO 2, yakozwe mu buryo bwo gutanga no guhanga imiterere mishya ya ADN, kugira ngo ikore ibitekerezo by’utundi turemangingo twa virusi dushobora kwibasira izo bagiteri.
AI yakoze ibihumbi by'imiterere mishya ya ADN. Abashakashatsi bahise bakora ibizamini bya laboratwari kuri virus hafi 300 muri izo ngero, maze basangamo 16 zishobora gukora kandi zikagira ubushobozi bwo kwibasira E. coli. Izo virusi 16 zari zitandukanye n’izisanzwe ziboneka muri kamere.
Zishobora gufasha kurwanya “superbugs”
Iki gikorwa gifite akamaro kubera ko hari bagiteri nyinshi zigenda zidakira imiti ya antibiyotike, ikibazo cyabaye imbogamizi ikomeye ku buvuzi ku isi. Abashakashatsi bavuga ko gukoresha bacteriophages nyinshi bishobora gutuma bagiteri zitabasha guhita zigira ubudahangarwa kuri ubwo buryo bwo kuvurwa.
Mu bushakashatsi, uruvange rw’izi phages zakozwe na AI rwashoboye kwibasira ubwoko bwa E. coli bwari bumaze kugira ubudahangarwa kuri ΦX174, mu gihe uruvange rwa phages karemano rutabashije kubikora.
Stanford kandi yatangije gahunda y’ubushakashatsi igamije guteza imbere imiti ishingiye kuri bacteriophages, by’umwihariko mu kurwanya bagiteri zidakira antibiyotike.
Ariko hari impungenge ku mutekano
Nubwo ubu bushakashatsi bushobora gufasha mu buvuzi, hari abahanga bagaragaje impungenge z’uko AI ishobora no gukoreshwa mu gukora virusi zishobora guteza akaga.
Abashakashatsi bo muri Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security basabye ko hakongerwa igenzura ry’ubushakashatsi nk’ubu, bavuga ko uburyo bwo kurinda umutekano bwakoreshejwe ubu bushobora kutaba buhagije mu gihe ikoranabuhanga ryakomeza gutera imbere.
Abakoze ubu bushakashatsi bo bavuga ko bafashe ingamba zo kugabanya ibyago, harimo kugabanya amakuru AI yakoreshejwe mu kwigishwa ku buryo idashobora gukora virusi zagenewe kwibasira abantu, inyamaswa cyangwa ibimera.
Ibi bivuze ko ubushakashatsi bushya bushobora gutanga inzira nshya yo kurwanya bagiteri zidakira antibiyotike, ariko abahanga basanga hakenewe amategeko n’ubugenzuzi bukomeye kugira ngo ikoranabuhanga nk’iri ridakoreshwa mu buryo bushobora guteza ibibazo ku buzima n’umutekano by’abantu.
