    Ohh you mean like the prize winning Folding project that google just shut down so that they could reassign all the staff to work on Gemini instead?

    Lmfao

    This bro doesn't understand AI, protein folding, or code at all but speaks as an authority on it all.

    Their model for folding proteins worked, is complete and access is given freely to researchers for use. I'm not sure what you think they should be working on now, are the people who made it supposed to just never move on to new projects?

    Notice how they've provided access to 200 million protein predictions in the human proteome and various plants?

    Does that sound like it has completed prediction for proteomes of all life on earth?

    Does it ever say it is complete even if only for humans?

    Does it ever say the workers on the project had verified the validity of even a fraction of the predictions or discovered application of the findings?

    It wasn't "finished", it was shut down and the employees reassigned to work on a project that produvesw nothing but worthless slop images and texts, buggy code, and occasionally deletes a database.

    Great example. It’s good for that, it must be good universally, so let’s use it for everything. Let’s force people to use it for everything, because it has one legitimate and specific use case scenario.
