Apoha: Liquid State Intelligence for Drug & Material Discovery
First-time guests Anshika Srivastava and Shamit Shrivastava, co-founders of Apoha, introduce "liquid state intelligence" — using wave ripples in materials to compute how substances behave. They explain the core problem they solve ("find me something that behaves like something else"), describe work with customers like Boehringer Ingelheim, and how they predicted late-stage drug failures with over 90% precision using just eight micrograms of material. They also argue the next wave of AI requires new classes of physical data spanning the remaining senses, and tease recent preprints and an upcoming product launch.
