Have you all discussed this yet? I saw it and immediately though of folding@home https://deepmind.com/blog/article/alphafold-a-solution-to-a-50-year-old-grand-challenge-in-biology quote:In a major scientific advance, the latest version of our AI system AlphaFold has been recognized as a solution to this grand challenge by the organizers of the biennial Critical Assessment of protein Structure Prediction (CASP) assessment. This breakthrough demonstrates the impact AI can have on scientific discovery and its potential to dramatic... Professor Venki Ramakrishnan, Nobel Laureate and President of the Royal Society posted:This computational work represents a stunning advance on the protein-folding problem, a 50-year-old grand challenge in biology. It has occurred decades before many people in the field would have predicted. It will be exciting to see the many ways in which it will fundamentally change biological research. Not sure how this changes things for folding@home (don't personally understand how it works as it is), perhaps the grid will now run AlphaFold? Or it will be used to verify AlphaFold's predictions?
