I think it's unlikely having better earthquake prediction would save lives in an economically justifiable way.
Neither weather prediction or protein folding are solved problems; that's the press misrepresenting the advances here.
- colesantiago 2y agoI wouldn't have expected Google DeepMind, Science or Nature to be part of the press and of course they are misrepresenting advances in protein folding and super accurate weather prediction with little to no case studies or breakthroughs in this area which are better than what humans can do. https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/gencast-predicts-weather-and-the-risks-of-extreme-conditions-with-sota-accuracy/ https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/gencast-predicts-weath... https://deepmind.google/technologies/alphafold/ https://deepmind.google/technologies/alphafold/ https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/gencast-predicts-weather-and-the-risks-of-extreme-conditions-with-sota-accuracy/ https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/gencast-predicts-weath... https://www.science.org/stoken/author-tokens/ST-1550/full https://www.science.org/stoken/author-tokens/ST-1550/full https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08252-9 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08252-9 But whatever you say.
