i imagine a big reason for this is that we don't have a silicon valley of biotech pumped with VC money. and presumably a big reason for that is there's all kinds of red tape when it comes to health and humans. no such thing as &qu

i don't think you need a 4090 for this. and even if you did get one, its 1600$. another 1000$ for good CPU and ram, etc. and you're well under 3k.
