AI still far from decoding human genome’s complex regulation

Why it matters for readers: If you follow science, it explains why interpreting DNA is harder than reading a simple code.
- Only about 2% of the human genome codes for genes, and most DNA’s role is regulatory and context-dependent.1
- Genomic function depends on messy, three-dimensional structures and interactions that complicate simple sequence-based interpretation.1
- AI models do not yet have the data or frameworks required to decode the genome’s dynamic regulatory logic.1
- Researchers have only scratched the surface of how genome structure influences function, making prediction and interpretation difficult.1
