Thank you Demis Hassabi! Now researchers will be able to use it freely!

Hey, Max - How's AlphaFold at oragami? In a more serious vein, it has been a lightyear advance for understanding protein structures; i.e., a Nobel Prize worthy advance at that!

[Maxone73 in reply to cujoe]

and AlphaProteo (which used data generated by AlphaFold) can design proteins on demand...most people don't understand the potential of these facts

For those wanting to understand more about why proteins are important (and potentially very complex), you could start with this Kahn Academy excellent video series that explains how proteins are created from amino acids:
