A complex problem that took microbiologists a decade to get to the bottom of has been solved in just two days by a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool.
Professor José R Penadés and his team at Imperial College London had spent years working out and proving why some superbugs are immune to antibiotics.
He gave "co-scientist" - a tool made by Google - a short prompt asking it about the core problem he had been investigating and it reached the same conclusion in 48 hours.
He told the BBC of his shock when he found what it had done, given his research was not published so could not have been found by the AI system in the public domain.

For all those who say "it cant be hacked!" I say anything created by man can be deciphered by man
But with all the mystery behind the creator/s of BTC, maybe the only theory that makes any sense is that aliens invented it & disappeared.

It tries and gives the wrong answer every time.
