I agree that it’s not premature, for two reasons: First, it’s been 6 years since AlphaFold first won CASP in 2018. This is not far from the 8 years it took from CRISPR’s first paper in 2012 to its Nobel Prize in 2020. Second, AlphaFold is only half the prize. The other half is awarded for David Baker’s work since the 1990s on Rosetta and RoseTTAFold.
