Through a computer monitor darkly: artificial intelligence in absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion science.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised or has already begun to influence absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) science. It is not in the area expected - that of superior modelling of ADME data to increase its predictive power. It is influencing traditional exhaustive and careful literature research by providing almost perfect summaries of existing information.
