Viruses are just another "mutagen". No different from UV causing DNA damage in your skin cells, other than the mechanism in which it occurs. The cause for cancer is well-known and,…

If you think these types of tools are going to be generating "the most and best research coming out of any lab", then I have to assume you aren't actively doing any sort of researc…

As noted, I agree on the great strides made in the protein space. However, the over saturation and redundancy in tools and products in this space should make it pretty obvious that…

What tools are "actually working" as of a few years ago? Foundation models, LLMs, computer vision models? Lab automation software and hardware? If you look at the recent research o…

I don’t think the basic usage of references is hard to grok for a beginner. If you aren’t going to mutate data and only access it, then pass a reference. No need for over-complicat…

That's completely understandable - leveraging the train set. But what I was trying to say is that the comparison is relative to models that were actually zero-shot and not tuned. I…

What's your opinion on the veracity of this benchmark - given o3 was fine-tuned and others were not? Can you give more details on how much data was used to fine-tune o3? It's hard …

Somewhat related — I’d love to hear your thoughts on dex-Lang and Haskell for array programming?

Ahh that's an interesting paper I must of missed that one - thanks for the link. I think another paper that recently got a lot of hype has been the Matroyshka representation learni…

Afaik, they aren't really trained independently -- for most models, e.g. DINO, etc., the smaller sizes are actually distilled from larger models. It's much easier to generate perfo…
