This new protein database is now public. It has been used to develop malaria vaccines, new enzymes that can eat plastic waste, and new antibiotics, said CEO Demis Hassabis.

Google’s deep mind solving the protein folding problem was one of the most important breakthroughs of our times. Mad respect to Google for making this available to all researchers.

I remember with the PlayStation 3 you could allow the “Fold at Home” project to borrow your PlayStation’s processor when you weren’t using it as part of a distributed computing system. I’m glad we’re past that stage and have made some progress.

VERY disappointed in 60 Minutes that they didn't ask the tough questions! They didn't challenge them on AI uses by bad people. AI can start wars and terrorize humanity. Battlestar Galactica was about egotistical humans and AI. Scott, you didn't press them at all.

This is a google PR push. Putting nice kinda geeky engineers out to the public. Meanwhile, they’re ruthless. Steal and out litigate the small start ups.

@SmokeAwayyy AI will gain “consciousness” and we won’t even know it because we don’t have a clear definition of what consciousness is. It will no doubt be more self aware than most humans. AutoGPT shows early signs of that.

Circular referencing magic. Little to do with real life, but computer models are justified by more computer models as correct. Pretend science of medicine at its best.

The CEO said that their AI “solved” protein structures, but the term “predicted” would have been more appropriate as the former can be confused with the term “solved” used by biochemists to refer to solving protein structures experimentally.

California's high-speed rail project would take 216 years to complete at Democrats current pace, which is 3.5 miles per year - Approved in 2008 with a $33 billion taxpayer budget, the 500-mile high-speed rail project was meant to connect LA and San Francisco - After 16 years, only 57 miles are track ready - This is an average of just 3.5 miles per year - At this pace, it would take 141 years to complete phase 1 - It would take 216 years to complete phase 2 - Real estimated cost has now reached over $200 billion dollars - $17 billion has already been spent - As of this video, only 57 miles have been completed This is Governor Gavin Newsom’s project

Elon Musk predicts that AI could exceed the combined intelligence of all humans within about five years. This will lead to an age of abundance where people can have almost anything they want, as long as something like a global nuclear war doesn't derail it first.

We're thrilled to present ESM3 in Science Magazine. ESM3 is a generative language model that reasons over the three fundamental properties of proteins: sequence, structure, and function. Today we're making ESM3 available free to researchers worldwide via the public beta of an API for biological intelligence. Trained with over a trillion teraflops of compute, this is the first time a model of this scale has been trained for biology, pushing the frontier of AI for biological discovery and engineering. ESM3 learns to represent the immense complexity of protein biology, learning from billions of natural proteins. From this training it developed the capability to design proteins, responding to complex prompts combining atomic level details and high level instructions to generate new proteins. ESM3 can explore protein space far beyond natural evolution. We prompted ESM3 to generate a fluorescent protein at a far distance from any known fluorescent proteins, searching an unknown region of protein space, to discover a new fluorescent protein. We estimate this is equivalent to simulating five hundred million years of evolution.

WOW. Minnesota's state-run Housing Stabilization Services program has been SHUT DOWN due to the massive amount of fraud that left the program BANKRUPT. "It was estimated in 2020 that it would cost only about $2.5 million a year to fund this program, but it ended up costing almost 50 times that much. Over $104 MILLION by 2024 due to fraud." "Because of all the fraud, Minnesota had to shut the program down in 2025." Think about how many homeless veterans could've used this program to have a roof over their heads.

On this episode of RehashedDAO, we speak with Luca Netz 🐧✳️, CEO of Pudgy Penguins, about one of crypto’s most difficult questions: how does an internet-native project become a brand that can survive beyond the cycle that created it? Pudgy Penguins launched on Ethereum in July 2021. In April 2022, Luca acquired the project for 750 ETH, then set out to transform it from a well-known NFT collection into a broader consumer-facing company. Today, Pudgy products sit in Walmart stores across the United States, an outcome that would have sounded improbable for a PFP project only a few years ago. This conversation explores the decisions, risks, and long-term thinking behind that transition.

ELON: YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL HOW YOU PROGRAM AI “If you program an AI to think that misgendering is the worst thing that could possibly occur, then, well, it could do something totally crazy. In order to ensure that there's no misgendering that can ever happen, we'll just annihilate all humans. That ensures the probability of misgendering is zero, because there's zero humans.” Source: Joe Rogan Experience
