The first human powered flight was only ~120ft, obviously not a indication that further research should be pursued.

- cooper_ganglia 3y agoI don’t think that whole “flight” thing is gonna take off…
- refurb 3y agoBut how is this a “landmark moment”? We’ve had computer aided drug design for the past 4 decades. Nothing wrong with sharing the research. But calling an AI generated set of antibodies a “landmark moment” when they don’t do what we want antibodies to do is a bit… inappropriate?
- relativ575 3y agoLandmark moment because it's the first time? Don't you think that's an accomplishment in itself? Just like the first flight, or the first satellite, none of those were particular impressive.
- refurb 3y agoI’m assuming you have no background in antibodies, but this is like saying “this is the first time AI put together a sentence but it doesn’t mean anything”. The purpose of antibody development is to develop something that binds well. That’s the goal. So basically AI designed something useless.
- UncleEntity 3y agoIt was also pretty useless to shoot a dog into space by your standard.
- riku_iki 3y agoIn this case AI could fly 120ft, while humans already were flying to the moon.
- bigcat12345678 3y agoNo The analogy should be that birds can fly thousands of miles when comparing with human flight
