Level 2 · Computed
Iambic describes Enchant v3, a 41-billion-parameter in-house model that predicts drug properties from 16 kinds of data, and says accuracy has kept rising with scale
Iambic's case to investors, and part of what its IPO pays for, is that one model trained on many kinds of drug data predicts better than many narrow ones and keeps improving with size. The report says that has held across three versions, and names two programmes Enchant helped optimise, IAM-C1 and IAM217.
