Can there be a challenge that actually does some maliciously useful compute? Like make their crawlers mine bitcoin or something.
Did you just say use the words "useful" and "bitcoin" in the same sentence? o_O
Bro couldn't even bring himself to mention protein folding because that's too socialist I guess.
Hey dipshits:
The number of mouth-breathers who think every fucking "AI" is a fucking LLM is too damn high.
AlphaFold is not a language model. It is specifically designed to predict the 3D structure of proteins, using a neural network architecture that reasons over a spatial graph of the protein's amino acids.
Fucking fart-sniffing twats.
