With this approach, instead of painstakingly testing thousands of existing molecules one by one in a lab for their effectiveness, we can train a computer to explore the exponentially larger space of essentially all possible molecules that could be synthesized, and thus, instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, we can use the giant magnet of computing power to find many needles in multiple haystacks simultaneously.
Med denne tilgang - i stedet for omhyggeligt at teste tusinder af eksisterende molekyler en efter en i et laboratorie for deres effektivitet - kan vi oplære en computer i at udforske ukendte områder af alle potentielle molekyler der kunne syntetiseres så i stedet for at lede efter nålen i høstakken, kan vi gøre brug af den gigantiske magnet af computerkraft til at finde mange nåle i adskillige høstakke samtidig.
