Abstract
We are living in an era in which AI technology has become widely available and accessible to many people. The field of drug discovery is no exception, and many pharmaceutical companies have actually begun to utilize AI technology in drug discovery research. In the field of image analysis, which is our main business, AI technology is also advancing and being applied to drug discovery research. In this era of "democratization of AI", what is the role of AI vendors including our company? What is needed for drug discovery researchers to use the technology correctly and appropriately in their research, and for more researchers to benefit from the technology than ever before? We would like to share with you what we have been doing so far and what we will do in the future for "true democratization of AI", including examples of applications of image analysis AI technology to drug discovery research.
