Osmo<\/strong>, a startup founded by Alex Wiltschko<\/strong>, aims to digitize the sense of smell using AI, with the ambitious mission of improving human health and happiness. As reported by CNBC<\/a><\/strong>, the company is developing a new type of technology that would allow computers to generate and detect smells<\/strong>, similar to how sight and hearing are already imitated in AI systems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the main objectives of Osmo is to use its technology to help medical professionals in disease detection<\/strong>, leveraging the information contained in odors. However, in the short term, the company focuses on creating safer and more sustainable aromatic molecules for everyday products<\/strong> such as perfumes, shampoos, insect repellents, and laundry detergents. According to Osmo, the current fragrance market is dominated by a few companies, and their technology could revolutionize the sector by designing ingredients that are non-toxic and non-irritating to skin or eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n

The innovation of Osmo lies in the use of machine learning and graph neural networks (GNN)<\/strong> to create a “main odor map.” They trained their AI model with data from 5,000 aromatic molecules, successfully predicting the smells of new molecules. However, this process was quite a challenge, as molecular structures are complex, and even the smallest variations can significantly alter the smell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead, Osmo intends to develop a new type of technology capable of teleporting smells<\/strong>, digitizing an aroma in one place and recreating it in another. In addition, the company continues to work towards its long-term goal of using digital smell to detect diseases, a development that, although still a long way off, promises to revolutionize medicine. <\/p>\n\n\n
