For those of you in the field, this seems like a big deal? ELI5

Their model on protein folding was obviously very impactful. Their model for new chemicals has to my understanding provided no value. Based on this track record, who knows.

I don't know. Google has some great papers but a lot more hot air. The best thing to do when you see a google paper is ignore it until someone you trust more writes a second paper about it.

  • To your own peril. Ignoring the stuff that comes out of Google caused Google itself harm. Some language is clickbait, some isn't. A Titan, that's a word if there ever was one. The Bitter Truth, a sentence if there ever was one. Language is a thing, and so I have to ask - why is language like this coming to these researchers?

    Off topic:

    Waymo is a verb, and Google owns it. The concept of AV will be overwhelmingly introduced to the world as Waymo. Not everything has to come out of left field.
