Artificial intelligence enabled ChatGPT and large language models in drug target discovery, drug discovery, and development

Drug discovery has been revolutionized recently by different computational approaches like artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning (DL), and quantum mechanical methods. Drug discovery and development was a prolonged process previously. Developing one small-molecular drug might take 15 years on average, costing around US $2 billion. A paradigm shift has recently been noted in drug discovery using computational technologies during the past few years.1,2 Biotech-based drug discovery companies developed their new business models guided by molecular modeling techniques with AI and DL for “small-molecule hit generation” and “hit to lead generation.”3,4 In this direction, computational-guided ultra-large physics-based virtual screening techniques have been used in drug discovery.
