Quanta.org -- How AI Revolutionized Protein Science, But Didn't End It

...a lengthy article describing the use of AI, and particularly DeepMind and AlphaFold(x), to help solve the "protein folding problem."

Particular Qs I have...
1. How do F@H and DeepMind projects overlap?
2. How do they differ?

Short answer : DeepMind, AlphaFold, Rosetta@Home projects predict the possible stable structures for proteins, Folding@Home studies how you get to these structures or how you leaves them for another one.

FAH results are like a movie whereas other project's results are more like pictures.

Greg (director of Folding@home) recently wrote about this a bit on the site's blog: https://foldingathome.org/2024/05/02/al ... ldinghome/
