Wouldn't this be like asking the cable company a long time ago whether they thought the internet would pose a risk to their bottom line?

I don't know. I've been leaning toward AI being the more probable source for cures since existing companies in medicine either have no incentive to do it, or can't/won't do it at a pace the world needs. At any rate, I certainly will not take the word of a pharmaceutical CEO.

Doesn't "the cable company" sell Internet access today?

So you are saying they are probably right? The Internet was not a threat to the cable companies.
