950 Claude Agents Run 21 Hours to Discover Novel Enzyme System ART with CRISPR-like Repeats
Anthropic deployed ~950 Claude agents for 21 hours to analyze 200,000+ reverse transcriptases, discovering ART — a phage enzyme system with CRISPR-like repeats and unknown function — validated in their molecular biology lab; the discovery path proved unstable across repeated runs.
