Evaluation of Large Language Models for Gene Set Function Discovery and Their Applications in Biology Research

Image
  A recent study evaluated five large language models (LLMs), including GPT-4, for discovering common functions within gene sets. GPT-4 suggested functions similar to the gene set name in Gene Ontology in 73% of cases, with predictions made with high confidence showing higher accuracy. Additionally, GPT-4 was able to identify common functions in 45% of gene clusters from omics data, which is lower than functional enrichment , but with higher specificity and gene coverage. These results suggest that large language models can be valuable tools for analyzing genetic and omics data. Source: Evaluation of large language models for discovery of gene set function .

Artificial Intelligence in Sport: Exploring the Potential of Using ChatGPT in Resistance Training Prescription

Image
  A recent study explored the ability of ChatGPT to design resistance training programs for individuals with intermediate and advanced training levels. In this research, GPT-3.5 and GPT-4.0 were asked to create 12-week training programs. The results showed that both versions were capable of generating programs with standard intensity and repetition ranges, but GPT-4.0 performed better in creating more complex programs suited to different levels. However, the generated programs still require refinement and adjustments by experts to ensure optimal effectiveness and to prevent potential injuries. 📌 Source: Artificial intelligence in sport: Exploring the potential of using ChatGPT in resistance training prescription published in Biology of Sport

Artificial Intelligence in Biotechnology Education: Evaluating the Effectiveness of Gemini and ChatGPT in Laboratory Training

Image
  A recent study evaluated two AI models, Gemini and GPT-4o, as tools for laboratory training in DNA subcloning. The study highlighted the strengths and weaknesses of both models in assisting laboratory procedures.
