The excerpt is a monologue by a single speaker discussing advances in AI for healthcare and pharmaceuticals, recounting an IBM-era project that dramatically shortened drug development timelines (from a typical 10 years to 2 months, and suggesting current capability could be on the order of a week). The content focuses on AI-driven drug discovery, its commercial impact, and acceleration of R&D.

Where we're at now, we've never been here before. This is beyond exciting. It is. And when it comes to healthcare, yes, right now there's so many famous stories of AI having found protein combinations that we've never seen before, and pharmaceutical companies are gonna make billions because they have new products coming to market. When I was with IBM several years ago, we had a solution where we guaranteed a pharmaceutical company we could take the, usually we took them 10 years from when they started researching or something, when they brought a drug to market, we said we could take you from 10 years to 2. By the time we actually did our second project, we had it 10 years to 2 months. And that was a project from 4 years ago. I guess today we could do it in probably a week.
