Researchers in Lund have discovered an antitoxin mechanism that seems to be able to neutralise hundreds of different toxins and may protect bacteria against virus attacks. The mechanism has been named Panacea, after the Greek goddess of medicine whose name has become synonymous with universal cure. The understanding of bacterial toxin and antitoxin mechanisms will be crucial for the future success

Can AI think? The short answer is no, at least not in the way humans think. AI does not have incentives, opinions, or empathy.

Since ChatGPT was introduced to great fanfare in 2022, the debate a
