AI Bioterrorism Risk Paper & Anthropic Bio Capabilities Test
A new academic paper predicts a major AI-enabled terrorism event as early as 2027–2028, while Anthropic's internal model was separately tested on creating experimental scorpion antivenom — highlighting the dual-use stakes of frontier AI in biology.
What we know
An account on X highlighted a new premortem paper predicting 'a major AI-enabled terrorism event' by 2027–2028, with 9 falsifiable predictions and two concrete scenarios. Separately, another account on X retweeted the launch of Citrini Therapeutics, which spent 3 months working with Anthropic's internal research model to explore whether AI could create an experimental scorpion antivenom — a real-world test of AI's biotech capabilities vs. the hype.
