I’ve been thinking about this. My current theory is that molecular simulation is a much more heterogeneous activity than language modeling. Language is always the same kind of data. Molecular simulations span orders of magnitude in space and time and depending on that, data and even objectives have very different form. AlphaFold is just one small piece in this puzzle and it’s very easy for a research project to incorporate AlphaFold into an existing pipeline and shift its goal.
