We present an AI-integrated molecular communication link validated on a benchtop nanomachine testbed representative of subdermal implants. The system employs an indium-gallium-zinc-oxide electrolyte-gated FET (IGZO-EGFET) functionalized with glucose oxidase as a biocompatible receiver, a microfluidic channel with a syringe-pump transmitter using on-off keying (OOK), and a machine-intelligence pipeline that addresses model mismatch and hardware non-idealities. The pipeline integrates: (i) a modular universal decoder robust to vibration-induced noise, chemical delay, and single-tap intersymbol interference; (ii) a lightweight pilot-only synchronizer that estimates symbol intervals; and (iii) a virtual-response generator that augments data and scales symbol duration. Experiments across multiple chips and sessions demonstrate end-to-end chemical text transmission with consistent error-rate reductions compared to naive thresholding and standard neural baselines. By coupling biocompatible hardware with learning-based detection and generative augmentation, this work establishes a practical route toward AI-native nanomachine networks and higher rate molecular links, while providing a system blueprint adaptable to other biochemical modalities.
