You don't need experimental data to do math. But we cannot currently simulate the effect a specific drug molecule has on the entire human. We have models for individual aspects, but that's it.

And the AI CEOs are promising these results very soon. I don't doubt that AI has the potential to fundamentally change the way we do science. But that will still require experiments, it won't be pure calculation for a few weeks and a working cancer drug falls out.
