Molecular modelers often grapple with repetitive tasks that can slow down workflows, such as zooming into binding sites, selecting specific regions in a structure, or applying visual effects to models. SAMSON AI’s /do command is a game-changing solution designed to streamline these actions, allowing users to focus on the scientific insights rather than manual tasks.
What Is the /do Command?
The /do command in SAMSON AI enables users to execute specific actions within the molecular modeling platform using natural language prompts. Whether you need to zoom into a particular region, apply a visual style to your model, or remove unwanted elements, the /do command makes it effortless and intuitive.
Designed to reduce manual steps and simplify your workflow, this command can recognize user prompts and immediately act on them within SAMSON. It’s an excellent example of how artificial intelligence—powered by GPT-5—can complement complex molecular modeling processes.
How It Works
Using the /do command is as simple as typing /do followed by your desired action in the SAMSON AI assistant’s input field. Here are a few examples:
/do zoom to the binding site./do select the ligand and apply a licorice model./do erase all surfaces./do remove water./do select the gaussian surface and make it light blue.
The simplicity of natural language input ensures that even users new to the platform can execute complex tasks without spending time navigating complex menus. Expert users will appreciate the efficiency boost, letting them handle repetitive tasks instantly.
Going Beyond Text—Voice Commands
Prefer speaking over typing? SAMSON AI also supports voice commands. Simply say “do” followed by the action you need. By enabling sound in the platform, you can enjoy hands-free automation that is just as responsive and accurate.

Why It Matters: Streamlining Molecular Modeling
Retrieval-augmented agency (RAA) is at the heart of the /do command’s capabilities. RAA combines SAMSON’s extensive knowledge base with cutting-edge AI capabilities to interpret user prompts and translate them into precise, context-specific actions. This feature not only saves time but also minimizes the chance of errors when performing tasks that might otherwise require multiple manual steps.
For example, if your workflow demands recurring actions like removing water molecules, coloring complex structures, or focusing on regions of interest such as binding sites, the /do command can automate these tasks seamlessly. This frees up valuable time for analysis and decision-making.
