Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly becoming a key component in pharmaceutical science, offering new avenues for drug research and development. By analyzing vast volumes of scientific data within a short time, AI reduces both the duration and cost of traditional drug discovery processes. It assists researchers in identifying therapeutic targets more efficiently, evaluating the potential effects of chemical compounds, and selecting the safest and most promising molecules in early development stages. Despite these benefits, integrating AI into drug research brings forth challenges, particularly related to data privacy, transparency, and ethical responsibility.
This paper explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping the traditional drug development landscape and emphasizes the importance of applying these technologies responsibly and ethically in pharmaceutical innovation.
