Dire Wolves Are Back And How AI Might Have Helped Reverse Their Extinction
A.I. In Medicine And Genetics

Hey there,
Have you seen the breakthrough news?
After 10,000 years of extinction, dire wolves have returned through an extraordinary scientific achievement. Colossal Biosciences announced they've successfully created three dire wolf puppies which is a genuine milestone for humanity.
It’s the first instance when we brought another species back from extinction.
The company named the pups Romulus and Remus (males born in October) and Khaleesi (female, born in January). They're currently being raised in a secure 2,000-acre facility in the northern United States under careful observation.
While many are discussing the ethical implications, I'm more amazed by the technological innovations that made this possible like Artificial Intelligence.
How Artificial Intelligence Likely Helped Out
While Colossal Biosciences™ hasn't explicitly detailed AI's role in this specific project, the evidence strongly suggests artificial intelligence was instrumental in the revival process.
After all, we know that Form Bio™, which is like a sister company to Colossal, already uses AI to help make new medicines. In a similar sense, Colossal Biosciences could’ve used AI to sift and analyze huge piles of data and find patterns for genome sequencing and editing.
The company likely used special computer programs that can learn and make predictions. These programs could help guess how changing certain genes would affect how the wolves would look and act.
What This Means For Your Biz
For forward-thinking business leaders, this breakthrough signals where significant investment and growth opportunities lie in the coming years.
Colossal Biosciences' valuation has reportedly reached $10.2 billion after raising $435 million in funding. The intersection of AI, computational biology, and genetic engineering is creating an entirely new economic ecosystem with tremendous potential.
Consider these opportunities:
Strategic investments in biotech firms utilizing AI for genetic research
Companies developing specialized computing infrastructure for genomic analysis
Startups creating more efficient gene-editing technologies
Support services for the growing de-extinction and conservation technology sectors
Even if your business isn't directly in biotech, understanding these emerging technologies helps position you to identify related opportunities within your industry.
This Also Gives Us A Sneak Peek On The Future Of Healthcare

What's happening with the dire wolves is just one small example of how technology is changing medicine. In the next ten years, we'll see even bigger changes in how doctors help people stay healthy.
The same AI and gene tools that brought back dire wolves could soon help us in many ways:
Medicine made just for you, based on your unique DNA
New treatments for sicknesses that couldn't be cured before
Better ways to stop diseases that run in families
Ways to help the body heal itself that once seemed like magic
We're now in a time where computers that can study living things will create new ideas for healthcare, farming, protecting nature, and lots more areas.
Smart business owners are already learning about these new technologies so they can make money from them. What about you?
I'd really like to know what you think about the dire wolves and how you think these new technologies might change your business.
