• Scientists at ITMO University and Sberbank Develop Multi-Agent AI System for Rapid Development of Medical Products

  Researchers from ITMO University, with support from scientists at Sberbank’s Practical AI Center, have devised a multi-agent system for identification of new drug molecules. Not only does the model generate new molecules virtually, but it also entirely automates the process of searching for and selecting them. The program operates with high accuracy – nearly 80% of the molecules proposed by the system meet the criteria set by scientists. The developers have already tested the system and used it to generate molecules that may contribute to the development of treatments for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, lung cancer, and other health disorders. The researchers presented their results at the EMNLP 2025 conference in China.

• AI Busted: ITMO Researchers Learn to Detect AI-Modified Texts

  Scientists at ITMO University developed an LLM-based tool that analyzes text content and style to detect whether it was written by a human or an AI. The detector demonstrates the accuracy of 94% and can not only spot AI-generated writings but also offer suggestions to humanize the text. The service will be of use for proper AI labeling, as well as reviewing student papers and corporate documents. A demo version of the technology (in Russian) is already available for testing; we tried it, and it does not lie – this article was indeed written by a real person.
