DeepMind's AlphaFold predicted protein structures with experimental accuracy
First reported
Mindstream ran this on .
- AlphaFold, an AI system from DeepMind (Google's AI research lab), learned to predict how proteins fold into their three-dimensional shapes.
- Proteins can theoretically form 10 to the 300th power different shapes, making prediction extremely difficult before this system existed.
