Industry Outlook 2025: Technology as a Supporting Element

Alexander Seyf, CEO and co-founder of Autolomous, sees the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) as tools to support pharmaceutical scientists and manufacturers in their work.

“AI and ML can help us to do the leg work, but the main work is going to need to be done by our own brain, but by human being,” Seyf insists. “I think it will be more segregation of mechanical work rather than intellectual work. And for identifying the progression of biology and the discovering the different solutions for different diseases, you've seen an amazing trend today. There are companies in the United States that we're looking at using off-the-shelf drugs for different indications that it was not intended from beginning. And I believe that's a huge, huge progression in the right direction. And for drug discovery, we're going to look at cross fertilization, of what we have already enhanced for the solution to the diseases that we don't have any treatment for. So, we will see examples of that practically, ML and AI can help us to progress the pharma and other industries, for that matter, more in the right direction.”
