Techie Shrinks Dog's Tumor by Half After Using ChatGPT to Design ‘First Personalized Cancer Vaccine’
Australian tech enthusiast Paul Conyngham used ChatGPT and AlphaFold to design a personalized mRNA vaccine for his dog Rose, whose tumor was genetically sequenced at UNSW. The AI‑assisted workflow identified mutations and suggested therapeutic targets, enabling a custom vaccine administered over the Christmas break. Post‑treatment scans showed the tumor shrank by roughly half. The effort also highlighted regulatory hurdles, as Conyngham spent three months securing ethics approval.
